We started our day bright and early from Reagan National Airport. The lines were long and things were a bit hectic, but soon we were through security and on our way to Houston where we would catch our connecting flight into Costa Rica! Upon our arrival we were reminded of how blessed we are when we met another United Methodist Mission Group that had been stranded in the airport since yesterday. Their group was trying to get to Costa Rica for a different mission sight. We boarded our plane with promises to keep this group from Oklahoma in our prayers!
Minus a bit of turbulence, and a flight attendant spilling a drink on one of our chaperones, the flight into Costa Rica was smooth sailing. We were greeted with enthusiasm and soon found our new home for the week. The kids are doing FANTASTIC! It is great to see the kids from different churches in fellowship.
Our work day begins tomorrow. Please continue to keep us in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you for the comments too! Please keep them coming.
Yours in Christ-
We are so proud of you and send our love and prayers your way from Wichita Falls, Texas. So happy that you are there doing great things.

ReplyDeleteWhat fun it was that you met another group at the airport. Not fun that they were having such a complicated time. I'm glad you are safely there. I can't wait to hear about what you did today. I pray you will sleep well and awaken refreshed in the morning, ready for another blessed day. Good night, sleep tight.
