First Sermon in Spanish!




A Day of Celebration
Debbie here . . . just wanted to share with all of you that Mike did a wonderful job preaching today, in Spanish, for the first time. I am so very proud of him! It is amazing what God has done for us in the last 11 months of intense language study. Mike’s message was “Who Can Separate Us from the Love of Christ?” "¿Quién Nos Apartará del Amor de Cristo?"

Our time here in Costa Rica has been challenging . . . and I know we will face more challenges in the next 30 days . . . but what a privilege! The name of our school, “CINCEL” means chisel – and we have been chiseled profoundly during our studies. So many of you have sacrificed so much to allow us to fulfill the vision God has given us.
We will head to Aruba after graduation. Please continue to pray that God will open doors for ministry and that we will have favor as we attempt to reach the Spanish community on the island.
Thank you to ALL of you for your prayers, your sacrifices and your faithfulness.
Together for the harvest . . .
