Merry Christmas and Blessed New Year

Blessings to all!  I will be leaving on January 5th 2011 for Costa Rica Spanish school for 3 1/2 months. I will be living with a spanish speaking family(called immersion). I need your prayers for my learning abilities-wow do i need that!!! This process will help me to establish a good base of the spanish language to build upon when back in the Dominican Republic. I keep telling myself that God is in control--my life is His!!  I want to thank all of you for taking time to read and follow my ministry.  I will keep you updated on my schooling. God bless and keep you all safe.   deloris norman
