Friday already?!

Today we worked on quilting and more than half of the women finished! It was an awesome feeling of fellowship and accomplishment today! To actually see this amazing quilt that they made by hand to take back to their families was really something. Quilting wasnt the only art we brought to the Cabecars....last night after dinner we showed two of the Cabecar women, Margherita and her daughter Rita, how to knit! It was so amazing to see how these women just pick up things so fast! It feels really good to know that these skills are going to be carried on and on and on to other Cabecars whom they will teach! Cameron made a comment on how this week has been like "Bible camp", and it is so true. Studying the Word with one another and using our own skills and abiliities to connect with another culture. I am so grateful for this and I know the Cabecar women are so grateful for all of this too.

We went on another nature hike today with Emily, Abby and Christine as our guides. It was so beautiful! God's creation is breathtaking! I cannot imagine being able to see this view of mountains and plants and flowers and waterfalls on a daily basis. What a blessing.

This entire experience has been filled with the Holy Spirit! Truly.
