Today one of our teams worked in a community where there isn't a single church, of any kind among several hundred people. A pastor in a neighboring community, along with his congregation, had been praying for inroads into this needy area for over a year, particularly to the younger people and children. When the pastor heard about the partnership possibilities with our team (and e3 Partners) several months ago, he jumped at the chance to invite us into this unreached community. Needless to say, God works in mysterious and wonderful ways! We were able to build relational bridges with dozens of children, youth, and young families and visit numerous homes within the vicinity. Approximately, nine adults and children accepted Christ and requested follow-up contact.
This was just one of the communities where our team ministered today. Each area had it's own unique and powerful ways!
Our team also enjoys a special time of worship in the mornings before we depart for the day and a time of sharing in the evenings when we return. (see first and last pic)

Thank you Jesus for answering many prayers already and for using the Costa Rica team to carry your message into areas that hadn't yet heard about you. Thank you for bringing new ones into your family! Please bring faithful nurturers into their lives to help them grow to know and love you more and more.
We are celebrating these new births and praying for courage, boldness, and usefulness for Christ's purposes for all of you.
In Christ, Anita Hansen (Kate's mom)
We need to have the whole Hansen clan with us next summer! =)
