lots of work

there is a lot of work to do here in costa rica. dylia and i are preaching the sermon tomorrow on practical steps towards having a god-centered dating relationship. we aren´t perfect for sure, but most of the students at theos don´t know anything different from the secular, ungodly relationships they´ve always been in. we will be doing the talk in spanglish... you are more than welcome to listen to the sermon- it will be on the theos website.

finding leaders has been a difficult process. I visited the youth group at the local vineyard church here. There was a husband and wife- the main leaders and one volunteer. The group was about 40-50 kids. Can you imagine that? I heard that churches were protective of their potential leaders, but no wonder. Anyway, the process has been more challenging than I anticipated. Please pray that God will give me wisdom in recruiting a strong group of core leaders who are excited about the youth culture.
