From Puerto to Limon!

Hey Everyone!

     Today is our hours in Puerto! It's crazy to believe that we have been here for 4 weeks already! A month of outreach has passed and we are headed into our final month of outreach and DTS! It's all going by so fast! Our last couple weeks here have been awesome! We have had so many awesome opportunities here to reach out to people and make some awesome friendships.

     This last week we did bible distribution! There is a project at our YWAM Base called Bibles For Costa Rica. This project is to get a bible into every home in Costa Rica. Our outreach team leader, Rasta, is in charge of getting a bible into every home in the province of Limon. So this past week my team and I distributed about 1200 bible. It was quite the week. We had many good conversations with people, but we also had many people who rejected the bible and everything we had to say. This week was hard for me because I don't speak spanish, but near the end of the week we got to the area where there is a lot of english speakers, so things got a little better for me.

      Then on Wednesday night I got sick. I was up all night, being sick every hour. I a stomach ache that never wanted to go away. It was horrible. So Thursday I stayed in bed, recovering. But then Friday I was back again and headed out to help in any way I could! It's a sad day for some of us leaving Puerto. We have made many good friendships with people here and we wish we could stay longer and pour into these people, but duty calls in another town. Our week in Limon is looking like a good time. Tomorrow we are helping out with a skate competition and then hopefully we will be helping out in an orphanage. I will let you know more about it when I know more! Keep us in your prayers as we head out into a new part of our outreach!

  Much love,
Hannah
