Various photos of the kids at Vacation Bible School

The limbo

It was fun to see the kids doing the limbo.

Women's Meeting

On Thursday afternoons the ladies from the church have a women's prayer and Bible study time. It was a sweet time of fellowship with the Costa Rican ladies.

Showing off bicycling skills

A few of us on the teams couldn't resist trying out some of the kid's bicycles. The kids enjoyed watching the big kids try to fit on their bicycles.

Mission trip to Puntarenas

Last week I had the opportunity to go on a mission trip to Puntarenas, Costa Rica. It was a really good week. This is the group that I worked with. It was a mix of people from Missouri and Costa Rica. We worked with VBS activities in the morning with the children. In the afternoons we visited in homes and in the evenings we had a church activity. It was a very enjoyable few days.

The lady in the photo by herself is Cathy. She wasn't in the group picture because she was taking the picture but she was a definite part of the team.

Crocodile Bridge

One of the favorite places to stop and look when you are traveling is at a place called Crocodile Bridge. There are always crocodiles at the bridge. I counted 24 the day we were there. No I wouldn't want to fall in that water!

Taking it easy...

In one of the restaurants I went to eat at recently they had the right idea. In the restaurant there were two recliners you could sit in and watch TV or read the newspaper. Of course I wasn't going to pass up a chance to sit in a recliner after we enjoyed a buffet meal of roaste chicken, french fries, rice, beans, and tortillas. Also Carmela, a Costa Rican child, wanted her turn to sit in the chair too.
