We also know that the kids see a difference in the education that they are receiving at El Puente. At the beginning of the year, Alisson, a second grader, sat in her chair, beaming. “I love science at this school!” she said proudly, “because we do experiments, and at my old school we just filled out worksheets!” Our desire is to see kids learning to hypothesize, experiment, analyze, and think for themselves, and she noted the difference!
More importantly, however, we see the eternal significance of the work we are doing at El Puente. During a Bible class a few months ago, the class was learning about Jesus and his disciples. While reflecting on the story as a class, Alisson, stood up and said to her teacher and fellow classmates “I want to follow Jesus too!”
Keep praying that God will use us to accomplish HIS will in our lives, in the lives of our students, and in the community of Quepos!
