Hi my name is Joseph Silva and I attend Woodstock City Church. I have been given this wonderful opportunity to go on a mission trip to Costa Rica. I'm very excited because of what I've heard people say about the experience...like being able to meet people from a different country, to become friends, and to help them. On this trip I hope I can better understand what it feels like to be in their situation and also help them in any way possible. I would like to ask for prayers for this trip and to help make sure I stay safe and have a good experience.
