Hello Family and Friends,
We have not yet shared with you about the first ever Holiness Summit, an event that occurred here on the Seminary campus at the end of October. It was a big event with more than 300 people registered from all parts of Central America as well as Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Brazil and Argentina. Truly, an International event.
The event featured great speakers each session, always focusing on the topic of holy living. Each one was unique and challenging.
In between the services, Shelley and David worked in their respective booth, David with Evangelism and Shelley with the Seminary. Here is the Seminary booth with lots of folks asking questions about upcoming classes.
It was lots of fun to see many friends from all over, including many old friends from our days in Guatemala.
Another exciting event when we finally got to meet Alvaro face to face in San Jose. Some of you know about Alvaro, who was a foreign exchange student with David's family when David was only 5 years old. Alvaro really became a part of the family and this summer we learned that Alvaro had moved from his home country of Colombia to..... San Jose, Costa Rica. He works with the Colombian Embassy and travels to Nicaragua and Panama, just as David does. So, finally we found a day to have lunch with Alvaro and his wife Monica. It was a wonderful time of catching up and telling him all about the Webb family. The next visit will be soon at Alvaro's home on the other side of town. We are already looking forward to it. Here is a photo of David with Alvaro and Monica.
In other news, the kids received good grades on their first report cards and we are all getting excited to have a short break at Thanksgiving. We are traveling a few hours west to the beach where we will enjoy the sun and surf. It is a must needed break from the daily pressures of our work. We will be very thankful as we drive on Thanksgiving Day.
God bless you all!
The Webb Family
