A Mission Beyond My ExpectationsThe last five weeks have just blown away all pre-conceived ideas I used to have. God's done some pretty revolutionary things in the way I acted, thought, and felt before. Little did I know that I would share my testimony to hundreds of people on television in San Salvador!

As one, we walked from area to area, writing out prayers and placing them on t

Almost OrphansBubbles rose as high as they could in the small fenced in courtyard. Kids shouted joyfully as they jumped up and tried to catch them.

"I have been here in Costa Rica for Three weeks now. During my first week here We were given a video project for The Children At Risk School here. I went to shoot footage in an area most Americans would call "the Ghetto", but there God showed me that kids there were still happy even though they lived in poverty.
In this world with seven continents, over 200 countries and 6 billion people--God brought us to Calle De La Amargura, or in English, "Bitter Street." This artsy street is crowded with university students, full of the world, and empty of life. Bar after bar dot the spaces on Bitter Street near the campus university. Our mission: to use arts and media as witnessing tools (in their language) and to show love to these people. Nathan from PNG, Jeff and several "ticos," or Costa Ricans, played music and talked with people. One of the local YWAM missionaries, Daniel, even used fire stick juggling as a way to meet people to share with.
