6/27 Meeting Recap

  6/27 Meeting! Yesterday our Costa Rica team prepared crafts (gospel bead bracelets and felt lions), went over travel details, and got a “professional” dance tutorial for the songs we’ll be doing in worship time. We also learned the songs “Yo tengo gozo” (I’ve got the joy) and “Mi Dios es tan grande” (My God is so big). Please pray that: - All details will come together - We will get fully funded - God would continue to prepare our hearts, and the hearts of the kids at Hope Partners International to share and hear the gospel Hope Partners International Website, our blog, and the missions website is linked in our bio. Information about financial giving can be found in our  Costa Rica video. ¡Muchas gracias!
