The last week of July, we welcomed back Bellevue Presbyterian Church from Bellevue, Washington. This was a great group and we even had a couple of returnees--which is always a good sign!
Check out their week!

For our fun day, we went to Los Sueños ziplining and a day at the beach, but we stopped at the Tarcoles River to check out the crocs!

We also took them downtown to see the sights. They LOVED the pigeons. Most of the team never said anything about being scared of or hating birds, but they were the focus of all attention when they were screaming. Some of the locals even got in on it and started throwing food towards them so the birds would attack! But we had lots of fun and no one got pooped on--a MIRACLE!
 |
| Shayna had some uninvited friends! |
 |
| Caroline was freaking out and breathing through this |
 |
| Everyone is kinda not sure.... |
 |
| At the beginning, Kelly was a SCREAMER, but by the end, she was determined to catch one--here is her proof! |
We also worked in the daycare all week--loving on these little ones!

Had a get-to-know you night at our house--wings and french fries! YUM!!!

After the team left, they left us donations--crafts, clothes and left over VBS shirts...The teachers were SUPER happy to get a new t-shirt! Thanks BelPres!
We loved our time with the team and just getting to hang out with them serving the kids and community at the Abraham Project. Thank you for your time and work!
Hope to see some of you back again NEXT year!
In HIM,
