Hello from Costa Rica!

    Hello from Costa Rica! This is Jake, one of the leaders for this great group of world changers! As Shadrach already said, our team has made it safely to our home for the month in San Pedro.

Everybody’s searching for it, everybody’s reaching out trying to grab a hold of something real.You are the cure! Only you can satisfy us, fill up the void inside us. Never been a heart you couldn’t heal. You are the cure.”...
