Back to Central America

Hola Amigos,

Sorry to be so long getting back to writing. It is on my list to do more of. Well, we are heading back again to C.A. Actually Jane is already in Nicaragua, where she has been part of a team teaching spiritual ministry to Nicaraguan staff of Young Life there. They are preparing these young Christians to be more sensitive to the Holy Spirit and more active in His work of transforming, healing, and strengthening, especially through prayer God's young people all over that country. Miracles have been happening!

I will rendez-vous with Jane on the 15th in San Jose, Costa Rica. We will spend some time together exploring some of the beautiful natural areas possibly Corcovado National Park from Puerto Jimenez in the south on the Pacific side or in the north in the wilds around Puerto Viejo de Sarapiqui. Either way we'll be seeing a lot of jungle and wildlife.

Afterwards I will join my friends from Bethany church on the Agros team in Nuevo Amanecer, Honduras. It is now 7 years that we have been working with the farmers of this community through many ups and downs as they have been making a go of farming this patch of land, now more and more their land. They are paying off their loans and have developed the land ( planted plantain,corn,beans, yucca...dug reservoirs...built houses...installed drip irrigation...). We both have become year by year closer friends.

I will do my best to write down the story of these next days so that you, too can share in our travels.

Hasta lluego, Gilberto.

Is it only a coincidence that the day you post this blog it is snowing in Seattle? Wow, what a trip! Be safe, have fun. Keep blogging. We will be praying for safe travels and fruitful efforts by both you and Jane. It will be fun to plan a ride when you get back . . .
