We have been so busy since Thanksgiving but we will try to catch you up on what is going on. For Thanksgiving we had 120 YWAM students and staff at our school from all over the world visiting. We had a big traditional american thanksgiving meal and it was great to share all the things and ways that God has provided over the last year to so many different people.
We had a few weeks of classes after thanksgiving and much of our other time was spent preparing for outreach by learning dramas and songs and kids programs etc… And just this last weekend we took a small break by visiting another YWAM base school in Nicoya, Costa Rica. It is out in the middle of the country and was a nice quite place to be refreshed. I just posted up some picture at this link:

We got to see monkeys, iguanas, scorpions and poisons snakes while hiking near the base!
We now are just finishing up the lecture, classroom section of our training this Friday, and we are preparing to go onto the outreach part of our training. This is where we get to put into practice all of the lessons that we were taught over the last 12 weeks. We will be leaving Monday the 20th to do a week long outreach in Costa Rica. We will be going to Liberia, Costa Rica where we will be running a homeless ministry and preparing for a big christmas dinner party for the homeless. We will be giving out clothes and shoes that we have been collecting over the past weeks. After this we will be leaving to Germany on the 30th of Dec. We will be flying into Frankfurt and mainly doing outreach there and in Berlin. We will return Feb. 7th.
Thanks so much for keeping in touch and reading our blogs. It makes a big difference knowing that we have a team of people behind us thinking about us and supporting us with prayers.
Stay tuned in over the next few weeks as we will be sharing about the more long term call that God has placed on our lives and what that looks like for us in the future. We are excited to share with you, as God is confirming this call in our lives, knowing that you are all just as much a part of Gods plan for this calling as we ourselves are going to be.
