Hi everyone!!

Wow I can't believe that I have been in missions for one year. Looking back, what I see is a great God that has been doing great things!!


Some highlights from this year are: God really put in my heart the prostitutes ministry after we work with them. For first time, We gave them flowers and ask if they would like us to pray for them. They were open and needed. It was amazing to see how God can transform people's life and set them free.
A whole year serving the homeless in San Jose down town teach me how to value those people. We build relationship with them and now we are able to see how some of them are changing their life. That's it gratifying for me!



Since January I've been hosting short term mission teams. For me to be able to serve and get to know people from different countries and cultures is a huge blessing.
Something that really impacts my life is to see how foreigners come to my country, They serve us without expecting anything from us! That not only impacts my life but it has been something that has impacted the community also.


After this busy season, I had a short time of rest. I went to visit my niece, grandma and great-grandma and at the end took a few days with the Pavely's (a family I work with) to the beach! I felt such love spending time with my family and the Pavely's. It was a refreshing time.

Soon, three groups are coming to do their outreaches here. So, for all of December and January I will be hosting and ministering with them! We will be feeding the homeless, working with children, serving communities and much more.
I am also working doing the communication with the teams that are coming next year, we already have ten teams confirmed for spring and summer time! This make me so excited! God is doing something here in Costa Rica and I am glad that I am part of it!!

I have some pray request that I would like to share:
My non christian friends
I want to study this coming year so that God can give me compromise to finish!
To be able to serve the people of Costa Rica and the teams with all my heart.

Ensenada training

A few days ago I came back from Ensenada, What a good time!
Since the first day that I got there God blessed me in so many ways, the people, the food, the worship times, everything was a blessing and today here in Costa Rica I feel joy in my life and ready to serve God here!
I learned so many things about Mission Adventures, that was the reason why I went there, in addition to what I learned, God really spoke to my life, He showed me so many things that He wants to make better in my life.


Sometimes here in Costa Rica I am so busy working with teams that i don't realize that I am not spending time with God, so in Ensenada I felt challenged to look up and have time with my creator and He started to teach me in little things and He also began to help me seeing what He is doing in my life and that I have to praise Him in everything that He is giving me.
I feel during my time there that He was working in my heart to have a heart for the youth. I had the chance to meet kids from the first cycle that impacted my life just seeing how their life can change in a Mission trip.
Now I am getting ready for the next months, I want to start Mission Adventures Costa Rica! the whole program here! I have to pray and get ready, I know that God is doing something and I am not gonna miss it!!
I left a lot of friends, it is not easy, but is good to know that they are in the place that God wants them to be and I am here doing what He wants me to do also!

I ask for your prayers and if you want to be part of MA Costa Rica pray about it and let me know!!

My first time...

In January I hosted a team from Ensenada Baja California, the director of the base was here and He invited me to do a Mission Adventures training in June. I say yes. I week ago I talk to Him, and we where looking for plane tickets but all of them were so expensive.
By the way...I never been in a airplane :0) . So Two days ago God bless me, Spenser help me out to buy a ticket and my parents give the rest of the money and I will go to Baja and is gonna be the first time for me in a plane!! It's cool how God take care of everything and sometimes I really get stress for my staffs and I forget the God that I have!
Now I am ready to learn and serve in Mexico for two weeks!!!

Great but sad end!!

We made it!! Marc Scibilia came to Costa Rica, we did four shows, He is just a amazing singer, God really bless us through him, He came with two more people, Justin and Phill (sound guy and bass player). I can't describe how beautifull is been working with them and be part of something new, fresh, cool and awasome for the glory of God and seeing God moving in the concerts. Everything happen because the team from Switzerland pray and plan it as part of their outright (for the last week).
Now they went away and it's so sad, but what I really know is that God did crazy things through them in Costa Rica and He give me the opportunity to get to know 12 cool people that will stay in my heart, now is time to go for them, finish their DTS in Switzerland and go back home.
Me, I would stay hosting more and more teams and knowing that God is using me to bring change in my country through the Missionaries that come and serve Him here!
I ask your your prayers, I love what am I doing but it's hard for me to say good bye over and over to people that I really love!
You guys are in my heart

Mi Abril

Ha sido un mes con muchos retos, he tenido la oportunidad de estar trabajando con un grupo de 8 personas de una EDE de Suiza, han servido en diferentes ministerios, las dos primeras semanas estuvieron en San Jose, en refugios, orfanatos, etc, luego dos en Poas, construyendo casas y trabajando con los agricultores y la semana que paso estuvimos en Jaco sirviendo en la comunidad, con prostitutas, y en el torneo de Surf con Surfistas Cristianos. Les pido que se mantengan en oracion por este lugar Jaco que de verdad al estar ahi pude ver como esta totalmente perdido, sin embargo, se puede hacer la diferencia y hay una esperanza para ellos pero tenemos que empezar a actuar! y que mejor manera orando. Ya hay una iglesia alla ( Iglesia Radical) la cual esta haciendo un trabajo increible y efectivo en ese pueblo.
Ya restan 3 semanas para que terminen la cruzada, estamos planeando un concierto con el hermano de uno de los estudiantes que se llama Marc Scibilia, ellos estaran presentandose en 3 lugares diferentes ( Jaco, San Jose y Alajuela ) igual, si nos pueden apoyar en oracion por este proyecto que lo que busca es levantar fondos para las personas que perdieron sus casas en el terremoto pasado.
Yo, si Dios quiere despues de que este grupo termine estaria saliendo para Ensenada Mexico la primera semana de Junio para un entrenamiento en Mission Adventures, son dos semanas las que estaria alla, la primera en entrenamiento y la segunda trabajando con un grupo para poner en practica y aprender del staff que tienen bastante experiencia. Todavia es un reto porque no tengo el dinero para viajar pero confio en la fidelidad de Dios.
Es lindo poder ver como Dios trabaja en cada una de las vidas de los estudiantes y de nosotros como staff y como se puede aprender cada dia, crecer y por sobre todo el ver como empieza a haber luz donde hay oscuridad.

Next step

Hablando con un amigo, de cual es mi siguiente paso, pense en donde estoy? y la verdad es que estoy en el lugar que Dios quiere que este! asi es, de eso no dudo. Como algunos saben, quiero hacer la escuela de Fotografia en Kona Hawai, he estado orando por eso, he ayunado para eschuchar la voz de Dios, sin embargo me cuesta confiar en que para Dios no hay nada imposible y que las finansas El las va a suplir. Casi un ano atras, Dios me confirmo que ese es el camino a seguir.
Les pido que me apoyen con oraciones para que las puertas se puedan empezar a abrir y poder hacer esa escuela que de verdad siento pasion.
Tengo que levantar muchos fondos pero se que Dios me puede suplir lo que necesito!! Les pido que me ayuden en oracion para que pueda hacer la escuela pero si en el tiempo de El!!!

While speaking with a friend about my next step, a question came to my mind... where am I?? And, the truth is that I'm in the place that God wants me to be. As some of you know, I would like to do the photography school in Kona, Hawaii, which begins in January, 2010. I have been praying and fasting to hear God's voice and, though it seems difficult at times to have the faith that the finances will come in, I know that nothing is impossible for Him. Almost a year ago, God confirmed with me that the focus of Photography is His calling upon my life. I am writing you to ask for your prayers for doors to be opened for me, that the timing will be right and, that I will be able to do the school which God has made me passionate for. Thank you, and I pray God's blessings in your life.

Mi vida como Jucumera

En junio del 2008 hice mi EDE (escuela de disipulado y entrenamiento), Dios empezo un proceso en mi vida, ha sido un camino largo, dificil, sin embargo, gracias a eso he podido madurar y crecer.
Constaba de cinco meses, tres teoricos en Costa Rica y dos practicos de cruzada en Panama, mi escuela de disipulado y entrenamiento, un tiempo en el cual Dios me hablo y confirmo mucho de los planes de El en mi vida.
Despues de mi EDE empece a orar para que Dios me guiara en mi proximo paso, le pedi que confirmara por medio de mis lideres cual era su volumtad y asi fue. El dia que me reuni con ellos me ofrecieron las dos areas, y eran por las que estaba orando (transporte y Aventuras Misioneras) asi que firme por dos anos.

En enero recibi el primer grupo, 8 jovenes de Korea, trabajamos por 22 dias, hicieron ministerio en el Poasito donde fue el lugar del terremoto y en San Jose con ninos y adolecentes, fue un tiempo donde pude aprender de esa cultura y la manera en la que ellos adoran a Dios.

Despues vino un grupo de Homes of hope de Baja California, tuvimos la oportunidad de construir una casa para una familia, de diez mienbros en total, que fue afectada por el terremoto, se trabajo por 10 dias, y al final la familia estaba muy agradecida, fue bonito el poder compartir con ellos y ser parte de su proceso y como han salido adelante despues de perder su hogar.

El miercoles pasado recibi al tercer equipo de Colorado, 21 personas, todos de un colegio en Vail, y el sabado siguiente uno de 15 personas de una Iglesia en Huston Texas, ha sido grandioso el poder servir a muchas personas, conocerlos y aprender de ellos.

Les pido que me apoyen en sus oraciones para que Dios pueda seguir siendo el que me guie en cada paso que de y que cada cosa que haga sea para honrrarlo a El.
Abrazos!!
