"My time in Costa Rica was life changing. It really showed a great picture of God's provision and love!" Jordan Beedy - Cannon Beach, Oregon "When I returned, my father said, “The boy that I watched get on that plan to go to Costa Rica was not the same man that came off of it.” Its funny, I have been back for 6 months now and I’m still amazed by how much I have changed." Caleb Chatterton - Ontario, Canada |
"My trip to Cannon Beach Conference Center in Oregon helped me grow in regard to my independence, as I was there essentially "alone" with almost everything different (climate, people, culture and place). It helped me a lot with personal responsibility, as well as how to live in community." Masai Gonzalez - Panama City, Panama "In the eight months that I participated in this exchange program, I had so many positive experiences that changed my way of thinking and how I see my life. These experiences have helped me make various important decisions in my life." Giancarlo Vargas - San Jose, Costa Rica “My experience was so valuable because I realized how my experience and testimony can impact the lives of campers and staff. The links and relationships that I made changed my life. God showed me that my life has to be according to what he wants, so I can be a light to the world, no matter where I am in the world.” Freddy Mendez Castillo - San Jose, Costa Rica "One of my hopes for this summer was to take time to see what God is calling me to after I graduate from college in December. This summer, through my time at Roblealto, I felt that God was confirming my return to missions in Latin America." Leigh Cappabianca - Northampton, Massachusetts |
