2016 ECM Mission Trip to Costa Rica

ECM has landed safely in Costa Rica, and has begun their work with the people of the diocese and schools in San Jose! The following is first report from ECM President Catherine Morse, along with pictures of their Easter Day celebrations at Church of the Ascension, and then out to the fresh air market for natural cocktails!!! Continue to hold them all in your daily prayers that God’s lovely work in the world, people together, will be a blessing through them and a blessing to them!

Hi Father Paul,

Just keeping you updated! ECM had a great day yesterday. We went to the market first thing in the morning for some breakfast that included coconuts, mangos, and other tropical foods. We then went to Ascension Church for Easter service which was very nice. We then went to downtown San Jose to have a late lunch, which was quite delicious, followed by some shopping in the artisan market, and we finished our trip with churros. We were all extremely tired when we got back such that we went to bed before 10 pm haha but that was good because we got up early this morning to start work which you will be hearing about from Hannah (I believe). Hope all is well with you and St. Thomas back home and looking forward to seeing you all again.

Catherine
