Tico Tuesday, October 21st

I was going to write to you about my trip to the beach this weekend, but today there were two activities at the Bible Home that are much more worth writing about! We're in the middle of a big campaign about being Guardians of Treasures. The treasures include ourselves, our rights and responsibilities, practicing virtues, self-care and proteccion and many more. Today the children went on a treasure hunt all over the Bible Home and each grade at school ended up with a box with chocolates, treasure-related stickers, and a promise for a prize for their class next week. It was a lot of fun to watch them search for clues, sing the song about protecting themselves, and find and dig up their treasures!

Then in the afternoon we had a visit from several missionaries with a ministry called OneBody. They make these booklets with daily readings. Over the course of the year we are reading the whole New Testament! Today they (including Koreans living in Honduras, Panama, Costa Rica and Korea and I think a couple other countries) came to do a review game at the Bible Home. They had asked our kids to memorize 14 verses from Proverbs 10 in 2 weeks. I was blown away at how well the children had learned these verses! I am so proud of them! The activity was a lot of fun-the kids were really enthusiastic and I think their knowledge blew our visitors away!
Thanks be to God for all the treasures He gives, especially those we find in His Word!
Love,
Carrie
