Well today is Thursday and it's almost the end of the week... which means it is our mid-Project retreat, I can't believe Project is almost half over!!! Time is flying! But at the same time, it is going to be so good to refresh and refill ourselves so we can go back out on campus next week in full force spreading God's word.

I never imagined how exhausting full time ministry is, I know I'm only getting a few weeks glimpse at full time ministry, but it is amazing and eye opening. I love it down here and I love being able to spread God's love and word. Not going to lie... it is really tiring and exhausting, but I am learning so much from it and how important it is to depend on the Holy Spirit and not myself. Loving it!! It's not always easy, but it is good, and I am learning and growing. I feel like I am also becoming more bold with being able to share and I pray that God continues to grow me in that way. I am excited to go back to my campus this fall... even though I am going to have a really hard time leaving here. I love everything about my time down here and being able to just love on the students at the University of Costa Rica.

One of my roommates had to go to the ER last night down here because she is really sick. Thankfully so was able to return after a few hours at the hospital and after receiving some IV's to make her feel better for the time so she could sleep comfortably. But please pray for her and our team. Sickness is never fun and she just wants to go back out on campus and get out of bed. It has been 5 days now, so we pray for a fast recovery from here on out. And just pray as well that we as a team can stay healthy and continue to fight on God's battlefield down here in Costa Rica :)

I again just want to thank all of you so much for your support. It is amazing to see God working in our team and in Costa Rica this summer (and myself) I love it!!
