Perez Zeledon Orphanage de Niños

 

 

 

 

 

  Last week Gabo and I were able to go down to Dominical and spend a couple days with Pastor Mike. Mike’s the kind of guy that has a real heart of love and is found serving at random places all over. Gabo has been in charge of CCS this semester (the class that assigns the students to places where they can practically serve in community) and has been trying to get the students the opportunity to serve in the orphanages in town. There are two orphanages here, the boys and the girls, and its not very easy to get into either one of them. After much prayer and some elbow grease though, he got the girl students in to serve at the girls orphanage down the street and has been praying for the same opportunity for the boys to do at the boys orphanage as well. It was really cool because while we were down in Dominical, it just happened by God’s plans, that Mike was going to serve at the orphanage alongside a group that goes there about every month or so, and being with Mike we were able to go and tag along too. We had a great time playing games, talking, doing crafts, egg hunts, a bible study, and just eating with the kids. The boys were a great group, really friendly and just silly little guys. We would love to go back and do some more ministry nights with them, maybe play soccer and do things like that, but it would take some prayer. Pray that we get open doors to go back, if not now then possibly next semester. God’s plans are exceedingly above all that we can think or imagine so we know He has something sweet planned but in time He will reveal. As for now we will wait, He is good and worthy of being trusted. He was faithful to just even let us go, both Gabo and I have been wanting to go to the orphanage this whole semester and even though its now towards the end, God remains faithful and no doubt will continue to be.-Amen.
