Hola from team Puerto Rico!We wanted to post an update and let everyone know that we are doing GREAT!The team had a wonderful day of rest today including going to church in the morning and afternoon naps. We are super excited to be helping with camp for the kids here over the next 3 days.  Last week we enjoyed ministry in the local barrio and got to visit a veteran’s home here.  The team has had the opportunity to hear stories and share their stories.  We have collectively loved the beach and spending our quiet time by the ocean.  God has taught all of us so many...

The Puerto Rico Team has arrived in country safe and sound.  They will be getting settled in tonight.  

Two weeks ago tonight, I met the 10 individuals who I would travel to Puerto Rico with to share Christ’s unconditional, abundant love.

We drank some coffee and enjoyed our sack breakfasts in our fr-fr-freeeeezing terminal at the airport, anxiously awaiting our flight to San Jose, Puerto Rico! We prayed for safety and smooth sailing (flying?) and The Lord provided.    After landing, our contacts Kaylah and Harry picked us up, and we got to enjoy some real Puerto Rican food for lunch… tacos from taco bell 😉 The commute to our camp took about 45 minutes, and we...
