OUTREACH TIME: COLOMBIA!!!


Friends, Family, Loved ones, Greatest Supporters:
I would like to start with: THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR PRAYERS AND SUPPORT!!
So the time has come for me to begin the outreach phase of this journey in YWAM.  Up until this point I have learned so much about how to be in a place of true need.  Before leaving I had my ideas of how this time would go and as it always does it never goes that way, but I have to say my time here in Costa Rica has been an amazing time with Jesus.
First I have learned the power of prayer and moving out of the way and second have learned that just as much as I need Him, HE needs me….something that has revolutionized my life and that continues to help shape my everyday. 
So as I sit one day from outreach I write to you asking for your PRAYERS!! They have been a primary part of my time here and I have felt every one.  I could not be here without any of you.
Here are the details of my outreach first we will be going to the north of Costa Rica for 10 days to distribute bibles door to door, AMEN.  Then upon my return we will head with 15 other students from YWAM San Jose to Cartagena, Colombia to do a multitude of different ministries and this is the part I have been waiting for.  We will work in a barrio, orphanage and doing construction projects through out Cartagena.  I am so excited and know that God has a great plan for us there and is going to show up.  So I am asking for your support, what ever you can give but more importantly I am again asking for your PRAYERS!! They are the support I truly need.

1)    Outreach: $2,000- this money includes airfare, living expense and room and board expenses.
2)    Sofie: $500- on of my classmates who is a young Costa Rican student that is in my DTS needs support she is very close to the amount that she needs…….BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY PLEASE PRAY FOR HER. She is an amazing young woman.
These funds will get me through until June where I will be returning for about a month to give updates and hug everyone of you!  I know, believe and stand in the promise that God is faithful. So please give if you can BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY PLEASE PRAY for me.
I look forward to sending you all updates, as we get closer to head out on our outreach.  And if you ever just want to check in on my and what is going on please check out my blog at sirinestingen.blogspot.com
I pray this finds you well,
Much love in Christ,

  1. Hey girl...
    I thought about you so much last Sunday. I think it was because God spoke to me so clearly... he told me I should be down at the alter praying for people. He said "step out on faith"... I have been so scared to do it and now feel the strength to. It made me think of you because whenever you prayed for me it had such an impact... God spoke directly through you and touched me. I know he wants to use me like that.

    I miss you! Can't wait to see you sis! LOVE!
    Crystal :)
