Day Six- Friday



The seniors enjoyed a beautiful day at the beach today. The trip was a catamaran cruise to Tortuga Island on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica. The weather was spectacular and we even saw some dolphins on the cruise out. Most of the students snorkeled before we enjoyed a four course lunch prepared on the beach as we enjoyed some music provided by a very talented marimba band. The rest of the afternoon was spent enjoying the water and the beach. It was a wonderful way to end our time in Costa Rica and the students certainly deserved the break.

Day Five- Thursday














What a day!! We had around 170 children in the two sessions and the construction crew was able to get all of the concrete work done. They also removed a large slab of concrete and dug a hole to China. It was sad to say adios to our new friends. Tomorrow we head to the coast for a relaxing day at the beach.

Day Four- Wednesday











What a wonderful day. We had nearly 120 children today in the morning and afternoon sessions. The construction crew continues to make tremendous progress. This is one of the hardest working group of students we have ever taken to Costa Rica and we are extremely proud of them. Tonight we will return to the church to share in the Wednesday evening service.
