Today we officially started outreach. At 7 we were at the river loading all our luggage into a dugout canoe to start the trip to Shuabb.
Across the river and up the hill we waited for the tractor to come pick us up and drop us off at the church where we led the church service at 9.

We helped out around the church this morning, then Rossela and I headed over to the elementary school to see if they needed any help. They didn’t, but we enjoyed meeting the teacher and students.

Everyone here is so generous. They’ve brought us so much fresh fruit- bananas, plantains, pejiballes (the orange looking palm fruit in the front. They taste a bit like squash), lemons, and mamones (the prickly red fruit).

We left this morning on the tractor again. It was sad to say goodbye to the children we had made friends with.
Andy and Randy.

Today was our free day. We went into Bribri to use the internet. Bribri is the biggest town around, and it’s not that big.

There was extra time today for devotions and worship.
Today we went hiking to a waterfall with the church youth group.
