It's the big day!

My team and I, who will be working with high schoolers in Costa Rica.
There is another team from our church who will be working with children in Costa Rica.
     
     Today is the big day! After months of preparation and prayer, a team of students, fellow leaders, and I are traveling to Costa Rica for 10 days! Please keep us, as well as the people we will be serving/ministering to in your prayers! May God's will be done on this trip!


"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of Godso that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people."
- Ephesians 6:10-18
