Costa Rica Report - Day 7

This was our last day of VBS, and it went great!  We had 85 kids come on our last day.  We sang all of our songs, talked about Jesus helping the disciples catch fish (and men), and gave a very clear gospel message to the whole group.  We even had around 20 parents stay for whole time, so they got to hear it as well.  By the way, the church normally only has about 15 children attend there.

We ended our time of VBS with water balloon games, which of course ended with everyone getting wet.  The students got to keep their sailor hats that they wore all week while we were here, and the church asked us if we could leave up most of our decorations for Sunday morning (as their sanctuary was our main room).

Tonight they had a outdoor barbecue for us.  They brought a grill and invited many of the church people that we worked with and the teens.  We ate, listened to Christian music in English and Spanish, and then got a few noses covered in cake frosting.

Pray for the church and the kids that heard the gospel message, that it will continue in their hearts and lives.
Pray for us as we have a day off tomorrow and do some site-seeing.

Boasting in Him,
