Pastor Sally Johnson

Greetings to everyone from Costa Rica and Pastor Sally Johnson:

Through a donation we were able to surprise the beginners and primary class with a Christmas gift. 7 children were not present. Thank you for this gift of Love.

 

It is the most wonderful time of the year!

As we celebrate the joy of Christ’s birth, we have been reflecting on all the blessings in our lives and ministry. YOU are a blessing to us and those we serve. Encouraging words, work teams, prayers and gifts made 2023 a year where our cup runneth over resulting in many coming to know the faithfulness of our God. We are humbled and grateful for each of you. THANK YOU never truly expresses how very much you are appreciated and loved.

Your support for us and Hearts and Hands for Jesus continued to provide significant impact in 2023:

·         8 students graduated from high school this year making a total of 42 since the beginning of the mission

·         2 university graduates this year for a total of 4 since beginning of Hearts and Hands for Jesus

·         23 students promoting to kinder, middle and high school

·         170 back to school supply bags were provided for students at the beginning of the school year

·         12 churches in Limon continue participating in monthly prayer and fasting (this is our 3rd year)

·         586 bags of basic food provisions were distributed to families with food insecurity

·         41 different types of fruits, vegetables herbs and spices from the farm and vivero were harvested and distributed to families in the community

·         3 mission work teams were coordinated by Hearts and Hands for Jesus to address spiritual and community needs in Limon

·         2 trips to minister and assist with construction in other areas of Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama were made by Sally and Crosby

Individual Mentoring classes for those seeking a deeper relationship with the Lord have been on going with several new individuals beginning this year. We were greatly blessed with a home visit to the USA this fall where we met many new friends and assisted in preparing and providing meals for individuals with food insecurity. November brought the celebration of Sister Elizabeth’s 105th birthday.
