Round Two


Hello all,

As I mentioned before I am heading back to Costa Rica for a second year as the Female Student Life Coordinator for the GAP year program through Score International.

This past year was challenging for sure which made for an excellent learning and growing experience. There were many highs and lows, but the grace of God was ever present.

Through the course of these last nine months, we saw the Lord guide and direct 20 students, 4 interns, and 5 staff members closer to himself. I am beyond thankful for the year the Lord gave us and the students He sent to Costa Rica.
I am also very excited for this coming year. I know that the Lord is going before us to send the right students and staff to Costa Rica. This year my role will be very much the same as last year. My ministry has been and is two parts. One is focusing on the GAP students. Second, it is leading a group of students to partner with Salva and Veronica in a town called Los Guido where my team is able to host ESL classes for children, youth and parents and also help with youth group.

God is faithful, gracious, merciful, compassionate and so much more. Out of His kindness He is giving me the opportunity to serve again in Costa Rica. If you would be interested in partnering with me in this ministry there are, as always, two ways you can do that. 1. You can join my prayer team. I saw the Lord answer prayer this year and it means the world to me to be able to turn to the body of Christ for prayer. And 2. You can prayerfully consider giving. In this position I have had the opportunity to witness God provide in every way. This year my support raising goal is $5,000. If you are interested in partnering with me in this way you can do so here: Rachel Liddic- Student Life Coordinator. You will see my profile and can donate from there. If you have any questions please reach out! I would love to connect! Also, I do post this blog throughout the year on social media with updates, but I also e-mail it out. So if you would like to make sure you do not miss an update send me your e-mail and I will add you to my list. I also use that list for prayer requests throughout the year.

Current prayer requests include:
- That I would be able to raise the needed support
- That the Lord would lead the right students to GAP and that they would be prepared for the year to come
- That the students who just graduated would transition into life in the states and that they would continue to pursue deeper relationships with the Lord. 

Thank you for considering partnering with me. Below I added in some photos from the last few weeks in Costa Rica!

Love has no borders,

I never would have guessed...

Dear Friends and Family, Many of you may know and some   may not so here it is... drum roll please... I am headed back to Costa Rica, and this time it is for two years! This past February, I visited Costa Rica to recruit GAP students for Lancaster Bible College. While I was there I heard about their need for a new Female Student Life Coordinator. I never anticipated this position being available at a time when I would be in a position to take it. While I was in Costa Rica with LBC I was able to speak with the directors of the program who offered me the position. After I returned home I had a lot of praying to do. I took about two weeks to pray and seek good counsel. After considering my options and seeking Godly wisdom I called the director in Costa Rica and officially accepted the position. In this position my primary responsibility will be to build relationships with and disciple the GAP students in the program. We hope to have 20-25 college age st...

Dream Job

Pc: Abby Shaw Hello everyone! It has been a little over a month since I arrived in Costa Rica to serve as the Female Student Life Director for the GAP program. In some ways being here is still surprising because I never imagined I would have the chance to come live here again. In other ways, living in Costa Rica and in the Villa feels absolutely natural; it feels like I am home. In many ways this is my dream job. Starting from 10th grade when I first traveled to Costa Rica I knew I wanted to spend my life traveling and mentoring students. I had no idea what that would look like or that I would end up in Costa Rica. Then not only am I working at GAP, but, I am also continuing to work for Lancaster Bible College as their International Admissions Counselor. God has been so generous.  Our Leadership Team GAP Students 2018-2019 Pictured above is this year's GAP class. The students have been here for three weeks. In those three weeks they have begun...
