A journey to Costa Rica: Post 1

Today started off with me and my roommate oversleeping, which is never a good thing. So we rushed to get ready and get to breakfast. I looked out the window though when i was brushing my teeth and was just in awe of the beauty here in Costa Rica; no matter the weather it's always so pretty. Just a simple look out a window made me realize how blessed I really am to have this chance to be here, So as the day went on many stories of past times here were shared within the group but also a word from Scott Farris just saying we need to see how God sees the lost people here not just view them as sinners. He used the parable of the Lost Coin; this parable really hit me though; if we searched for sinners and rejoiced when they were saved like this woman rejoiced about finding her coin the world would be so much better!  Today was also the first Kid's Club we did. This club was in Tierra Blanca, which is where a church just started back up after several years. It was pouring down rain when it was time to begin, yet 25-30+ kids showed up still some with parents and some without. One lady was saved today after going to a home group yesterday, her exact words before being saved were "I have done to many things wrong to be forgiven." There was also multiple autistic children there who just blessed your heart with how willing they were to learn. Overall today was a success and we were all extremely blessed today and learned new ways to minister.
