Costa Rica Mission Trip

A Word from Charles

Hello to all,
You haven’t been gone but a few hours and yet my thoughts have been constantly with you and your mission.

I’m reminded of Paul’s travels as he constantly proclaimed God’s word and testified to the name of Jesus.
If you give it some prayerful thought, I think you’ll find that your mission is much like Pauls.

No matter where Paul’s travels carried him, he was always praising God’s eternal name.
You, brothers and sisters, are charged to do the same in the name of Christ Jesus our gracious Lord.

Do not just speak it….shout it.
Do not just proclaim it….declare it.

Perhaps the Psalmist says it best:

I will praise you, O Lord with all my heart;
I will tell of all your wonders.

I will be glad and rejoice in you;
I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
Psalm 9:1-2

God’s eternal peace be with you all.

I remain in His service,
Charles Pope

Did You Say Concreto?

Our flights went well. We arrived on time and made it to the church. After lunch we started working. Ran a batch of concrete and started prepping the metal tubes so we can start tomorrow morning.

Early Departure

The Corinth team met us this morning at the church and we are off to the airport. 4:00 am come early. A lot of sleepy eyes but all with big smiles. This brings our total to 25. Only 2 more to add to our team and we will pick them up in Atlanta.

We are finally on the plane. Getting through TSA was fine but the line was long. The last couple of team members made it with 5 minutes to spare.

The captain said we should take off in about 5 minute.
Here us a picture of a couple happy campers.
