KidzReach orientation

We have been very busy the last few days. It feel like we have been here a long time and it’s only been three full days. We were very lucky to be able to have our own house. It is a one bedroom house that we can stay in this week that Taja lives in. She works on the YWAM base and is out on Outreach for the next while in Columbia I think.
We started our time here with some tours of the main base. We looked for projects that we could do when the Fehrs arrive in Jan. One of the projects that is really needed is a new pen for the goats on the base. Right now they don’t have the funds to build one and the goats are tied out on ropes all day. Last week they lost one of their best breeding goats because it became entangled in it’s rope and no one saw it in time. So if it works out we would like to build them a space. I will try to download a picture. We have been having problems with our e-mail ever since arriving in Costa Rica. I found that I could get e-mails but I can’t send them from our computer. Ryan showed me how to start a new Gmail account and that seems to be working but of course we don’t have any of our address book in this new account and so it takes a long time to send a bunch of people e-mails.
The other things that we have been doing is preparing for our outreach in Panama. Colton and Miranda have been making prayer journals to document their time while one KidzReach. They have also been packing tracts into the toy bags we brought down from home We went on a bus ride down to the next little town San Rafael and the kids played in the park with the local kids and then after our time there they handed out 25 bags or so. The kids at the park were very happy to get these toys.
Yesterday we started to learn a drama to do for the indigenous in Panama. It is a story about 3 trees and how they were used to glorify Jesus.
We have been having a great time living like the Costa Rican’s, and team building with the Bedencops.
