¡Buenas a toda nuestra familia en Cristo! Greetings to all our family in
Christ! In honor of Thanksgiving we
would like to thank you all for your prayers and support that allow us to be
here in Costa Rica, learning the language and following the will of God
wherever it may lead us. It’s a blessing
to be able to serve our Lord on the international mission field and we are very
grateful for the privilege.
We are all
doing great here, daily learning to communicate in Spanish in a variety of
contexts… in the store, at school, with taxi drivers, in church, etc. Barriers are being torn down little by little
that we may share our lives and the gospel with the Latin-American people. I, Justin, am still being refreshed by
Rosetta Stone and the conversations of every day life; Bobbi Ann and Steve have
been passing all their tests in the Spanish Language Institute; Kevin is
continuing right along, finishing his end of the year exams; and Anni is a
handful, in both languages!
We are still
seeking opportunity to minister in context of where God has us, and there are a
few in mind already. I have already
begun to become more involved in one of those opportunities. I will be assisting a local seminary here in
San Jose to disciple and train pastors in very impoverished areas who cannot
afford in depth biblical teachings. This
ministry consists of building relationships, encouraging the brethren and
providing technology (free of charge) with complete seminary classes over a
variety of biblical themes. This will
greatly improve the confidence of these men of God and the stability of their
teachings, giving them the tools they need to minister to the people around
them. My job in this ministry will be to
keep up with the technology; setting up the programs, troubleshooting the
problems, and helping to navigate the ins and outs of the software in general. Apart from that ministry, my wife and I are
still planning a trip to one of the Christian camps in the area called “La
Montaña”. I am very excited for that
possibility to minister to the youth of Costa Rica as well.
As we
approach the end of another year of ministry on the mission field, we want to
remind you all that your contributions and your prayers are vital to our being
able to fulfill the calling of God for our lives. Be praying about continuing your financial
support for this ministry and about spreading the word of it to all your
friends, relatives, and coworkers. Get
the word out so that we can get His word out!

... as well as keep up with Steve and I’s devotionals and skits that we put on
the SON Ministries webpage: http://www.sonministries.webs.com …
As always, thanks again and God bless you all in the name of our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ.
