One More Has Been Added

We now have 20 team members confirmed for July 31- August 9. The most recent addition is Desiree King from Albion, Indiana. Welcome Desiree.
In the weeks ahead, youth are going to be finding support group members or sponsors. Sponsors are essential for our young people. Sponsors are prayer partners for the individual and our team. Sponsors may provide financial support which many times is the only way some youth will be able to participate. And the fun part of sponsoring a youth is when these tired young people return home, the sponsors are right there asking for a report about experiences. Now...kids get busy and find those sponsors.
A scripture passage that might help us focus on our mission comes from 1 John 3:16-17. This is not the gospel of John but the 1st letter to John. It is a small letter, 3rd book from the end of the New Testament. See how this might be a challenge for us not only in Costa Rica but right here in Indiana.
Now for a bit more research about Costa Rica. What religious group is dominant in Costa Rica? What are the top five exports for Costa Rica? As you are doing some reading on Costa Rica, what interesting fact did you find that you would be willing to share? The quiz is just around the corner so I hope you are keeping up.
