Costa Rica Campaign Began

We met the team from Decatur Baptist Church, Decatur, Alabama; the team from Murrell's Inlet Baptist Church, Murrell's Inlet, South Carolina and the team from Rock Harbor Baptist Church, Bakersfield, California, at Iglesia Bautista Vida Nueva, San Jose, on Saturday afternoon and started this year's campaign with a family festival at a private neighborhood.  The evening was cold, windy and there was a light drizzle, but kids still played on the inflatable and families enjoyed the free snow cones, although hot chocolate might have been better.  The movie, drama and gospel presentation were well received by the neighborhood and several people made professions of faith.  It was a good first night.

Sunday morning worship with our Costa Rican friends is always a highlight of our week .  Brandon Holthaus, the pastor at Rock Harbor Baptist Church, preached an excellent message from Philippians 2, encouraging us to "shine as lights" in a dark world.
