Wow, time flies here, I see I haven written for about a week... which means I've been really busy and learning a lot! I love it here. It's great. I'm so glad I have had the opportunity to come on Project... and especially in Costa Rica! God is good and He is doing amazing things in a lot of people's lives this summer.

This weekend we went up to Monteverde (a small town/cloud forest way up in the mountains in Costa Rica) to refresh ourselves, enjoy Costa Rica, and just relax to prepare for the second half of Project. Our team went horseback riding through the mountains and ziplining through the rain forest, it was SO amazing!

I had a lot of time to reflect on the first half of Project... it has been so good. I am learning a lot about making the decision to let the Holy Spirit guide me through eachday completely and not depend on my own strength b/c full time ministry is exhausting!! but let me tell you, the Holy Spirit provides.

Last Thursday morning I led a devotional for our team. At first I was really nervous, because I had never led anything like that at Project yet and everyone here is so wise... but it was good, I enjoyed it and learned a lot. I led the team through making the decision each day to love the way God wants us to love. I chose to speak about love because I read something earlier in the week that said.... (more to come, I have to go eat supper :) I'll return soon... thanks for reading!!)
