Greetings from Costa Rica Day #4

We had a good and busy day yesterday (Tuesday).  We started our day in the local markets to look for gifts to take home to family and friends. We met back at the hotel at 12:30. The rest of the day was all about preparation and ordering the things we brought with us for the missionary women that so many of you were apart of!!!!  They will be sooooo Blessed!

We were then able to get into the main conference room we will be working from to get the sound system, keyboard, tables, etc., set up for tomorrow.  We then had a sweet time of worship as a team, prayer over the room and all its contents, prayer for the missionary women coming in tomorrow, and then dinner before retiring to our rooms.  It was a long day but a lot was accomplished!  The team is tired but excited! 

Please spend an extra amount of time in prayer today (Wednesday) as the ladies prepare to come to the Hotel leaving behinds husbands, children, ministries, etc.   Pray that they will be able to come without feeling “guilty” about being here to be refreshed while the world keeps spinning!  Pray that God will speak to them and minister to them through this team from the minute they step on the premises.  Pray that what God accomplishes in their hearts while they are here will bring refreshment to their homes, husbands, children, ministries, etc. Pray for the team through the rest of this week that they will feel rest even when we aren’t getting enough rest! Ha,ha,ha,ha

Thanks to all of you friends and family members that are writing your prayers and thoughts to us on the blog.  It has been really fun for us and an encouragement to the team.  We talk about it amongst ourselves.  In fact baby Tica mom made a personal journey down the hall to my room to see what I meant when I said that baby Tica was growing. Ha, ha,ha,ha,ha,ha

Please pray also for Stacey, she has had a little bit of a bug since flying out Saturday.  She felt somewhat better last night. Don’t worry mom and dad, we are making sure she gets the rest she needs and whatever else. 

We love you all and covet your continued prayers.

His,
Vickie

I will stop and pray right now for the missionary ladies who will be arriving today; for your team, who will be ministering to them the next few days; and for rest and relaxation for everyone -- especially Stacey and Baby Tico. Thank you all for serving in this way. Beverly F.

I didn't realize we could make comments here! I am praying every day. I hope the two women who were born in Germany will be able to read my note to them. Siegi Sumaruk said that they would wonder who in the world I found off the street to try to translate for me! LOL You can tell them that :-)

Oh, I can't wait until I get to go with you all. I'm waiting on God's timing, but I sense it is soon!

Enjoy the coffee and the sweet fellowship.

Jesus' love and blessings,
Jan Tabrizi
