We have been back now for 6 weeks and life hasn't afforded us much time to catch up! Dave is teaching a Defending the Faith course as well as teaming up with another local pastor in Cartago who will be teaching a Christian Living course. We opened up our home to about 20 friends after church Sunday for a World Cup fiesta and cheered Spain on to a 1-0 victory over Holland! Dave has also started a Jui Jitsu class on Saturdays to reach some of the unsaved youth in the area. I am discipling 2 new believers and meeting with two women who have questions regarding Christianity this week. Finally, after receiving news that Word of Life had to cancel the youth camp for this week, we have organized a three day camp for about 12 youths from our church Wednesday thru Friday, following a children's Fun Day in the morning!
One blessing in all this activity is that we have Corey, a 19 year old son of our friends, staying with us and lending a helping hand. In addition to being a talented musician, he has been quite a servant around the house and in ministry. He will be assisting Dave at the camp this week, in addition to leading worship time. Pray with us that these 5 weeks will be an encouragement to him and that God may use this experience to direct him in his future decisions.
