costa rica
Eric, my husband, and I have an amazing opportunity this summer. We are going to Costa Rica to spread the love of Jesus Christ. I am so excited! I have been on many mission trips before, but never out of the country. Eric has never been on a mission trip! I can't wait to see what God is going to do in and through him while on this trip.
Honestly, I don't know a whole lot about what we are going to be doing while in Costa Rica. I know that we will be in a tiny village called Grano de Oro and ministering to the missionary family there, the Jones', the people of Grano de Oro, and the Cabekar Indians who live in the surrounding area. What "ministering" entails, I am not really sure yet! That doesn't mean I am not super excited to go!!!
The purpose of this post, however, is to commission you. Eric and I and the rest of the 23 people going to Costa Rica need prayer, and lots of it. Pray that we do God's will while we are there, and that we impact lives for the Lord. Pray for safe travels. Pray for the people we will meet, and their salvation and healing.
Lastly, if you would like to, we ask that you prayerfully consider supporting us financially. We have sent out support letters and are currently raising money through various fundraisers to try and cover the bulk of the cost. We know God wants us on that trip, and that He will provide the finances we need in order to go. If you decide to donate, you can make checks out to Greenwood Christian School, and mail them to Eric and I. (Email me for home address at heathersevans@gmail.com). Remember, your contributions are tax deductible!
