Costa Rica Mission, 2005
July 10, Sunday, Farmers' Market, Concert in the Park, Church.
Farmers Market. We started our Sunday morning early by going to the downtown farmers' market to minister in dramas. It is the oldest and largest farmer's market in the city. There was a diverse and wonderful display of fruits and vegetables there. While there were a lot of people there, not many stopped for our dramas. They were intent on shopping for their week's vegetables. Most couples had shopping carts or strollers of some kind to carry their food.
Concert in the Park. Then we went to the large Sabana Central Park for the concert we had prepared for. The Park is huge with at least 15 athletic contests taking place at once on various fields. The large stadium held 100,000 for a Benny Hinn engagement in January. The atmosphere was great in the Park and we drew a large crowd, with quite a few families.

After a nice lunch and afternoon worship, we divided into two groups in the evening, one to join our singing family friends in downtown San Jose, and one group to go to the evening service at Ciudad de Dios.
