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!

GOD's Little Ones


My name is Alessandro. I am four years old. I live with my mother and my grandmother. My favorite color is red and I like dogs. My favoirte food is soup. I like to ride my tricycle and I like to watch bicycle races. My favorite song is La Cancion de los Monos (The Monkey Song). I don't like it when people shout. I like to play and I like having someone read to me. I don't know what I want to do when I grow up.

GOD's Little Ones


Hi there! My name is Wesly and I am 7 months old. I don't do much talking for myself so my mom is going to tell you all about me. My mom likes for me to wear pink and my favorite animal right now is my teddy bear. I like milk, and I like being in my house. My favorite pasttimes are eating and sleeping. My favorite song is a lullaby my mom sings to me called Duerte Mi Nina (Sleep My Baby). I don't like having my hair combed or brushed, but I do seem to like most everything else. My mom wants me to be a lawyer when I grow up.
