Dedicated to journaling our work mission trip to Costa Rica sponsored by the Iowa Conference Volunteers in Mission of the United Methodist Church. A place for us to share our excitement, prayers, anticipation, and anything else God puts on our hearts.
Continue praying for the team, for the people with whom we will work, play and worship with in Costa Rica, safe travels and for those we leave at home. God goes before us and will walk with us!

Day 4 House Construction Team


Jan. 8th Construction at the house on the hill. We were lucky to have help from the Illinois team who are young and eager to work. There were most loads of dirt to move to level the lot.

Construction continued on the storage building. Side walls were covered with steel sheeting and the roof was started. The construction materials for the side walls of the home arrived and had to be carried by people power up the hill to the site. This was a very difficult task since the concrete posts and slabs each weigh over 200 pounds. Yes, we were busy and had a very good day. Glen H.
