I Made It One Month In Costa Rica

Hey To You Who Ever You Are,

I just now realized that I have been in Costa Rica (C.R.) for a whole month now. For 31 days I have been in another Country away from family and close friends. I have started to make some new friends and connections. I am also working on my Spanish and helping those who work in my school get better at their English. I am doing well, besides the occasional think of home, family, friends, old times, and memories and crying about it.

I am finding out that my job is going to constantly change this whole semester. It is nothing really like American schools. I will in the next week or two get three kids from the kindergarten class because they have been in there for like two or three years. How this happened I do not know, but they are all 7 years old. And at the End of September I will be getting a first grader from the states. I might also be getting another student in two weeks who was an orphan and is getting adopted, but we have to wait on the paper work. I will probably not come home for Christmas until the 23rd of December. Claudia and Manuel are making shoeboxes for here and passing them out and I am going to stay and help them with that. They also do a ministry like North Lufkin two Saturdays a month and I am getting involved with it.

That is about all for now from Costa Rica. Have a Great day and Weekend. Love and Miss you all.
Love from C.R.,
Sarah J. Moore
