Last night we attended the Thursday night service. Howie, Erin, Tori, Annie, and Dillon got an opportunity to share their testimonies. They all did great!
This morning we had a great last day of VBS, but it was sad to say goodbye to a lot of the kids. We´ve invited them all back to church for Sunday morning to sing and play one last time! Here you can see a picture of the Abejas (bees) on their last day.
The highlight of the day was definitely the bounce house and the trampoline. These things have the same affect on Costa Rican kids as they do American kids....hyperactivity. But they had a great time.
This afternoon it rained hard, so we took the opportunity to play some volleyball in the rain. Right now we´re resting up for our last night of English classes, and of course the guys´soccer rematch at 8:00...the anticipation has been building all week!
Sounds like a fun day - a great way to end the week!! I'm sure it's sad to say goodbye to the people you've been reaching out to all week, but the cool thing is that the time you all have invested in their lives this week will continue to make a difference in their lives after you leave. God(and the Christians there) will take all those seeds you've sown and water and take care of them in your absence. Thanks to all of you for your willingness to go make a difference in Rio Claro. Enjoy the rest of your time there. Boys -- this is your time to shine on the soccer field tonight!! :)
