Well this last week we said goodbye to Costa Rica! It was an amazing last week; as a squad we got to hang out in San Jose (the capitol) and hear each others stories from the month and recharge for the months ahead. San Jose was such a beautiful city and had so much to do! Who knew that McDonalds could be so good after 5 weeks of rice and beans! I look back at my time in Costa Rica and would not change anything about it. Waking up everyday on the farm to howler monkeys being way to loud or eating dinner and geckos falling from the ceiling. Tony calling us for meal times with his unique way of yelling “yerrrrrrp”. The peoples lives we got to touch and just the laughter I had with the children. It was some of the best times of my life. Times where hard of course but in the end they where some amazing times! So Costa Rica thankyou for the journey and all the lessons. What a great start in this journey!

So what’s next? Well me and my squad have been in Guatemala for about a week now. We will be here for 2 months. The first night here we got to stay at a beautiful AIM base in the mountains surrounded by 2 volcanoes. One is dormant and the other Fuego is active and we even got to see it go off! It was such a beautiful sight. Now me and my team are in Guatemala City stationed in a YWAM base. We are working in the communities and doing street evangelism. So far its gone really well. Then next we are traveling 7 hours north and working with an indegious tribe in the mountains of Guatemala. It is going to be so cold up there and I am so excited! Well this is the first little update and there will be more to come!

Quick prayer request something happened to my ankle and whenever I walk there is a lot of pain so pray that would go away! I had to miss ministry one day because of it so that is never fun. And prayer for me squad during our time here in Guatemala.

So after Guatemala I found out I’m heading south to the beautiful country of Peru!!!!! Home of Machu Picchu. This country was on my original route and I am so excited to get the chance to go!

God bless and tell someone you love them!
