Hello Everyone!
 |
| J and K enjoying downtown San Jose. |
It has been a wonderful Christmas and New Year season here
in Costa Rica. We celebrated by having
all 4 Webbs under one roof once again.
Joshua visited Costa Rica for two weeks and we enjoyed the family
time. We spent two nights at the coast,
visited with friends, saw some movies at the new Lincoln Plaza Mall and spent
one day in downtown San Jose.

It was sad to say goodbye to Joshua, but we jumped back into
work hosting a Work and Witness Evangelism team from the state of Washington.
We worked in Palmares and San Ramon, areas
located northwest of the San Jose, doing compassion, evangelism, VBS and light
construction.
Here are some highlights
of our time together with the team of 12 persons.

Now we are looking forward to a great rest of the month of
January. Monday we will be back to
office work preparing for the upcoming Costa Rica Conventions and
Assemblies. The Seminary is hosting
intensive classes for the next two weeks, so it will be great to have extra
students on campus.
A new volunteer couple have arrived to the field and will
begin their time by studying Spanish.
Gary and Naomi Faucett, who joined up with the WA team highlighted
above, will be staying on campus until mid-March. We are thrilled they will be here to study and
work alongside us for these months. Here is their blog so you can read all about them: thefaucetts.weebly.com
School starts on Tuesday for Kayley. She had a great fall semester, so we know the
spring will be wonderful too! Joshua
returned to classes on January 3rd, arriving late after a flight
delay and overnight stay in Dallas. His J-term will end soon and the second
semester will begin. For now, his plan
is to double major in Journalism and International Business, with a minor in
Spanish.
May God bless you all as you begin the New Year. We have had a great start and can't wait to see what the LORD will do in the 37 churches and 30 missions of Costa Rica this year!
David, Shelley, Joshua and Kayley
