Her platelets were extremely low, […]

Reaching the teens and older youth of the community

Submited By: Marin, Johnny & Mabel

Over the years we have had a wonderful ministry opportunity reaching the children of Quebrada Amarilla with our Saturday morning Bible classes. However due to the lack in numbers to help us teach multiple age groups, we only have two classes with a wide range of ages in each. We suspect that for this reason […]

Construction of a Local Church Building

We acquired a piece of land a couple years ago with the thought of one day being able to use it for the construction of a building for us to meet in for the work here in Quebrada Amarilla. As of last year the cabin we are meeting in currently began to feel quite small, […]

A vehicle for use in the work

The Lord has blessed the work with many people interested in attending from the town of Quebrada Amarilla, and surrounding areas. Many of the contacts do not have vehicles or means of transportation to come on their own, so we try to offer any help we can with picking up and dropping many of them […]

Building relationships

Mabel planned a night for the women to come and enjoy a meal. This was great for building relationships among the sisters as well as ladies from the community. As a result, a number of women from the neighbourhood started coming out to the meetings. We pray for their salvation. […]

Guapiles

Submited By: Crawford, Kory & Rebecca

Two years ago, we held an encouraging week of children’s meetings in an isolated assembly in the town of Guapiles, which resulted in children still attending the Sunday school to this day. We pray for their family contacts as well as for the children, as some are approaching their teens and need to be saved […]

We took a van full of believers to the most isolated group in the country. There are only four in fellowship there, but they had planned Sunday School and a message. There were about 20 kids in attendance and 10 adults who attended the gospel meeting. Pray for them. […]

Only eternity will reveal the impact

Submited By: Crawford, Kory & Rebecca

This was the first year we printed calendars locally in the country. It enabled us to have our contact information printed on the back, which has resulted in requests for a free Bible or information about the meetings. Only eternity will reveal the impact of these seeds. […]
