Keystone Team and the Little Pink House

By -
Hey everyone,
Just wanted to reach out and give a quick update on how God has been guiding our steps in our upcoming transition. For those who haven’t heard, the Lord has been working a lot in our hearts over the past year. We are looking forward to our move to a town by the name of Santa Rosa. We now have an official move date (September 13th) and a house!!! Praise God for continuing to provide for our needs in this time of many unknowns. It’s been awesome to see prayers being answered in this journey. 

 We had the opportunity to host the Keystone Youth Group down here at the beginning of July. They were able to get a glimpse into the community and church plant where we will be serving. It was a very busy week as we held a mini VBS in 3 different locations. It was a blessing to have a team that was well prepared that was able to share the love of Christ to the different communities. They endured a very hot week and were full of energy the entire time. Please continue to pray both for the kids that were reached in the different communities as well as the Keystone Youth as they soak in all that they learned while serving. 

Esteban and Hannah Mora are the couple that we will be partnering with. They have had the church plant in Santa Rosa for a few years and have big plans for expansion. We are excited to come alongside and help them accomplish the different ministry opportunities God is providing. Please pray for Esteban, Hannah, and their family! 

Please continue to pray that God will provide the rest of our monthly funds for our move. We need to raise about $1000 more a month to get to our monthly goal. If you have any questions feel free to contact us. If you would like to become a monthly financial partner you can click here.

Attached below are some pictures of our house that we will be renting and settling into soon, as well as some highlights from our week with Keystone. 

God bless,
Brandon and Samantha Hoover

Fun things are happening here in our ministry and in our family, and we are excited to update you all on the work the Lord is doing! We were sharing the story of our family and ministry with a new acquaintance recently, and it is always so humbling and sweet to think back on all the Lord has brought us through in our years here in Costa Rica. His mercy and grace are ever present, His love so powerful, and we are so grateful to be able to be a part of His kingdom work!  The weekly ministry agenda with Semillas de Vida continues to bless our lives and family, and we are thankful to be able to serve the regular attendees of the church. Sunday mornings are always a highlight of our week, as we come together to worship with the body of Christ. As we have mentioned before, children’s ministry is a large part of our Sunday mornings. We have been blessed by the completion of a new Sunday school room for the youngest group of students, ages 2-5. This is a big upgrade from the small “cry roo...

Well into this new year, we are far overdue for an update here on the blog! It is hard to know how to summarize and share the highlights from the last 6 months, but overall we are so grateful for the time of furlough that we spent in Pennsylvania. It has been wonderful to be able to catch up with so many of you in person and give firsthand testimony as to how God has been working in the ministry in Costa Rica and in our family. Many of you so lovingly opened up your homes to share a meal, or met up for coffee to hear how God is moving and we will forever treasure these moments! Thank you, and praise the Lord for these much needed opportunities!  We loved having an extended time in the U.S., giving us the chance to experience things that we have missed over our time spent in the mission field. Experiencing Fall and Winter again, seeing all the sights of Lancaster County, traveling to visit with friends and supporters across the States, and spending sweet time with our family on the ...

February 2024 Update!

Happy New Year everyone! It is hard to believe we are already a month into 2024, and looking back on this past year, it is amazing to reflect on all the growth that has happened within our lives and ministry! We are encouraged by the amount of regular attenders at Semillas de Vida who have recently taken the steps to become members of the church. This includes an application process, attending a membership course, and being presented to and accepted by the congregation. It is exciting to see more people who are willing to take this step, and then move forward in positions of serving within the church. As membership increases, so does our team of willing workers. This means more people to help with children's Sunday school, food service in the fellowship hour, men to help with scripture reading, and tasks throughout the week like cleaning and preparing the building for worship. We are so grateful for all that God has provided this past year to help grow our church and the service te...
