Southside Church Mission Trip

We hosted a team from Virginia last weekfrom Southside Church. They were a group of 39 teenagers and adults and came to do construction projects, kids club and family movie night. They did some amazing work and we are so blessed to havehosted them! They worked on building a house for an elderly lady who attends our church. Theybuilt a cinderblock wall on a home in INVU (the neighborhood we work in). They built new picnic tables and benches for the park and brought new swings to replace the broken ones we have. They re-roofed the public school in Hermosa. They built soccer goals for a school in a little pueblo of 100 people about 1 1/2 hours from Jaco up in the mountains. Allin all, it was a blessing to have themand we will continue where they left off to finish Alyssia's house as well as other projects that we had planned to do. Thanks Southside for all of your hard work!!! The following are a few pictures from the week...

What a wonderful week you have had. I can hardly wait to come back to Jaco to see the fruits of the teams labor both in people and projects complete.
