We made bracelets. We worshiped! We shared our testimonies. The two day retreat led by ourselves and our local leaders at YWAM was a success. Thanks God! 

Here’s a quick rewind of F Squad's ministry for the month of January!

Earlier this week, our squad did sports ministry in an Indigenous village that YWAM had not reached out to before! Kids, teens, and adults alike came from their homes to play soccer with us in the pouring rain, on a muddy field, surrounded by misty green mountains. Rasta, our friendly local YWAM boss, was screaming “VAMOS EQUIPO” the entire time. We hope to come back next week to keep building relationships with this community. 

A few days before that, Squad F evangelized in the streets of another indigenous town called Bri Bri. The people of Bri Bri speak their own language mixed with Spanish, and communication was difficult to say the least, but despite challenging language barriers, we were still able to have incredible conversations and see the Spirit move during our time there. 

Last week, we evangelized in the beach town of Puerto Viejo. Since this town has a big tourism industry, we’ve been able to talk with people from around the globe in both English and Spanish. What an incredible variety of stories and relationships that have come from evangelism here! Every racer has seen the Lord moving in one way or another. Who knew that God would send us all the way to Costa Rica to minister to Canadians, Americans, Germans, Panamanians, and Ticos all in the same place? 

The week before last was our first week. We spent the entire week helping our YWAM base with projects to serve future YWAM students for years to come. 

Month five of our race is coming to an end && we cannot wait for what month six holds :)
