Not much new lately other than I moved into my new apartment last week. I think that it is going to work out great. The only difficult thing may be all the noise that comes from the surrounding apartments. I think that the walls are much thinner than what we would typically have in the states. The man who rented me the apartment has a son who was in the drug program...he has taken to me pretty well, as have the others in the area. I think they are intrigued at seeing a gringo living with them. Jose(mans son) comes over almost daily and wants to learn english and I in turn get to learn spanish. We are going to be studying the bible some as well. He wants to change how he has been living. He told me last week that it is hard here in Quepos because he knows everyone and whenever he goes out into the city all his "friends" as him if he wants to get high. I completely understand where he is coming from. There is a bunch of temptation here for someone trying to get clean.

I have been going to church on Saturday nights witht the men from the program. I don´t understand much of what is being said, but I get the point. I really just like the praise and worship. I taught last Sunday at church and I think that I am doing so again this coming Sunday. I have stayed busy in studies thanks to opportunities such as teaching at church, preparing a bible study on Tuesdays for our team, mens prayer breakfast every Wednesday, and Shabbat(rest and fellowship) on Friday nights.

We are looking for a new place to have the program as of today. We will be closed down in 2 months because of the conditions of the program and mostly in part due to the fact that there is no way for emergency vehicles to access our program. Basically, there are specifications that cannot and won´t be met, so we are looking for a new place. It will work out fine. I am looking forward to seeing God do something great.
