Hello!
This summer has really flown by for the Webbs. The kids have enjoyed their time away from classes but have managed to keep busy with various activities. Kayley has been babysitting regularly as well as helping with VBS at church. Joshua had an exciting trip to Panama with David and a team from Kansas. Watch the next blog for an update about that!
There were four students in the Beginners class with Professor Gaby. She does a great job of connecting with the students.
This is Professor Zeidy and her two students James and Chad. They seem to having fun!
Everyone enjoyed the Butterfly Farm. It is a neat place to visit just outside of San Jose. Costa Rica exports coccoons to all parts of the world for butterfly exhibitions at parks like Cypress Gardens.
Kayley was pleased to spend time with two new friends his summer - Kady and Thomas were lots of fun. They are loving their iced coffee drinks at Cafe Britt. Yum Yum!
One week the Evangelism leaders/Church planters were at the seminary for classes, so each mealtime was spent practicing Spanish (English for the church planters) and learning more about each other.
The group took a number of field trip and tours. They went to the National Musesum, Inbio Park and San Pedro de Poas for an outside church service. Others were adventurous and went to the beach or Arenal volcano. This photo is from a trip to Cartago and the famous Basicila there. We also visited the Lankester Gardens which is known for orchids. Beautiful!
Each week a missionary speaker shared their testimony and a little about their missionary assignment. It was great to hear from Ruben Fernandez, the Seminary president (see the photo above) about his heritage and the work of the SENDAS.
It has been a great month for the CALL students. They have learned so much and come so far in such a short time. It is wonderful to watch them gain confidence and to begin to hear the words - in Spanish - come out of their mouths. They are such a wonderful group of people who will use their new words in ministry in the USA.
If you would like to study with CALL, just let Shelley know (swebb@nazmac.org) and we will make it happen! The next intensive session is in January 2011.
Be praying for David as he is on a week long trip to Nicaragua. He is visiting two districts making plans for upcoming teams and meeting with leaders.
We are thankful for good health during this last month and for success in ministry projects. We are excited for what is coming ahead with the new school year beginning in August and lots of projects for the fall.
God bless you all,
THE WEBB FAMILY
