October 2009
Hello from Costa Rica,
We are finally together in Costa Rica studying at
the Instituto de Lengua Espanola, in the capital
city of San Jose. The teachers are very good,
helpful and patient. Our daughter, April, is here
studying as well. It has been fun hanging out and
studying together.
Our grandsons (L
to R): Aiden, Will, JD and Luke; our newest
grandson,
Kyle Joseph, born to Tiff and Chad Sept. 4th, 2009
This has given us
opportunities to meet other students who are also
preparing for the mission field and to be an
encouragement to one another. One of the first
topics you share after introducing yourselves is
where will you be serving God after language school.
In San Jose, we are renting a
house with Rusty and Rissa Innerst and their two
small children. They are also studying at the
Institute and preparing to be missionaries to Peru.
We have known them since 2001 and when we first went
down to the jungle.
Our upcoming plans are:
Wendy is currently attending the Intensive Course
until November 20th, and will return home on
November 21st. Pat will finish the first trimester
on December 11th, when he will return to Council
Bluffs. We are all looking forward to being together
as a family at Christmas!
Our prayer requests are:
Comprehension and usage of the Spanish language
Transition being away from family God would receive
the honor and glory for what He is doing in our
lives.
Praise: Progress in
learning the language
Safety and good health
We want to thank you for your
continued prayers and financial support!
In Christ Alone,
Pat and Wendy Campbell
2 Thessalonians 1:11-12
Therefore we also pray always for you that our God
would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill
all the good pleasure of His goodness and the work
of faith with power, that the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ may be glorified in you, and you in Him,
according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus
Christ. |
