“The people on our team, especially the youth, were so receptive. This was a life altering experience and would not have been possible if not for the Lord (of course) and your obedience to Him in helping us go. The missionaries there in Costa Rica with Students International are doing an awesome work. They are taking little and making much. They need our continued support and prayers.” -from a letter thanking supporters

We have been praying for over two years that God would open opportunities for Students International ministry sites in the San José area. God is doing just that. In the last month we have talked to several churches and other mission organizations that are interested in partnering with us.

The possibilities are numerous and vary from construction opportunities to working alongside an existing childcare project, from long established projects to working with churches to help dreams become realities. Most of the projects we are considering are in Desamparados within a short bus ride of the SI-Costa Rica office. As many of our contacts have said God is a master chess player strategically moving his pieces to accomplish His purposes.

Praise God for the many opportunities that have been presented to us and pray that we would carefully discern which ones to pursue.
