Our oldest daughter Melinda surprised us one day when she sensed that the Lord wanted her to organize a missions trip to Costa Rica; so—on her own—she challenged several of her college friends at Dayspring with the idea. As you may remember, Melinda has had some memorable experiences ministering to the Cabecar Indians, a remote indigenous tribe in the heart of Costa Rica. Her friends took up the challenge and on May 13 a group of eight will leave Denver for San Jose, Costa Rica. This has been a big step of faith for Melinda. Not only has she taken the responsibility of raising her own support, she also is gaining valuable leadership experience as she organizes and leads the entire project. These college students are in for an adventure. Melinda hopes that this trip will open up the world of missions to her classmates. By the way, Melinda is becoming more convinced that God is leading her into some type of vocational Christian ministry. She is grateful for your prayers for her over the years. God is working!
