VBS at El Alto Church

Hello Everyone!

Last week was a busy one for Kayley with our local church holding a Vacation Bible School program from Sunday - Sunday. Kayley and her friend Ammi were in charge of the music. The program had songs, but the songs had no actions, so Kayley and Ammi invented their own and led the music class each day. Way to go Kayley!

I tried to load a video but without success. So here are a couple of photos of Kayley leading the music.

Joshua has kept busy with his normal activities - playing BB each Monday night at the school, shooting hoops here on campus, reading the few new books he has, and reluctantly preparing for the ACT exam. There are practice tests online, so he has been reviewing and taking those tests, part by part, to be ready for ACT in October.  There is only one place in Costa Rica to take the ACT, but thankfully it is not too far away from where we live.

The Slingerland family just returned from their home assignment, so those 4 have been inseparable this week.  They are the best of friends.

David and Joshua will work with a team next week in the city of David, Panama so the Webb girls will be left home alone for a week.  It will be quiet but will allow for extra Mom and Daughter time.

School will start in mid-August, so the kids are already dreading the day after enjoying such a long, nice summer. 

David and Shelley have kept very busy with their work schedules, but we did enjoy taking a few days off to have David's Mom and Sister visit us here in San Jose.  It was fun to just relax with family.  We got to see Alvaro and his wife Monica who are from Columbia.  Alvaro was a foreign exchange student in David's home when he was only 5 years old and it has been many years since David's Mom has seen him.  What a blessing!


Enjoy the rest of the Summer!
God bless you all,

Shelley, David, Joshua and Kayley
