Through this blog we want to share the ministry and Costa Rica with our readers by means of several weekly posts. These posts will include A Glimpse of Costa Rica (photos of people and places), Did You Know...(facts and information about Costa Rica), as well as a post featuring a different child each week. We also plan to use the blog to keep you up-to-date on events, activities, needs, and prayer requests related to the Kids Kitchen, other ministry projects, and the family. We hope you will visit often. Blessings!

Hi! I am Brendaly and I am 14 years old. I live with my family. My favorite color is red and I like rabbits. I like Chinese food. I like to listen to music and I like to ride bicycles. I don't like being noisey or rude. I want to be happy and friendly with other people. I would like to be either a doctor or a police woman when I grow up.
