Maybe this is the place to also share the news about the blessing received by Michael, and my daughter Raquel. Their beautiful baby Lucas was born on November 10, 2017.

The Facilities Committee has continued to develop the New Building Project. They have made advances with the blue prints, the permissions, and the fund-raising. They already have close to 30,000 dollars collected from the local membership. Architect Freddy Astorga has produced the video below to get us excited.
The Baxter Institute in Honduras approached the church in Heredia with a request for cooperation with the training of one of their students. As you already know, this school requires from their students a six month internship in the mission field as part of their course program. The church leaders discussed the possibilities with the congregation and then took a vote and a decision was made to support and mentor Juan Carlos García Valle and his family for the period from January to June, 2018. Juan Carlos, his wife, and a five year old daughter will be with us during those six months and they will give us a hand with the work in Heredia and San Rafael.

The church in San Rafael continues to operate as an independent congregation North of Heredia. We are excited about the fact that people are hungry for the Word of God. They keep coming to worship and study with us. The love is very obvious and we look forward to move the meeting place into the downtown area of San Rafael. Please see pictures below of December meetings of this church.
