Working alongside the Agape Evangelical Methodist Church of Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica, Lilliana serves the women, children and families who have inadequate or no access to basic health care and exist in severe poverty.  As construction of the Agape Clinic continues, Lilliana is going door to door in remote, poverty stricken villages in the Puerto Viejo Sarapiqui area.  Through her strong faith and nursing skills, she is gaining trust, saving lives, healing and sharing the Gospel to hundreds who are marginalized, lost and without hope.

Information about upcoming mission and medical outreach trips to Costa Rica during 2012 will be available at both receptions.

LILLIANA IS EXCITED TO SHARE THE GREAT AND TRANSFORMING WORK OF THE EVANGELICAL METHODIST CHURCH OF COSTA RICA IN COLLABORATION WITH ST. ANDREW UMC THROUGH 4 CORNERS GLOBAL OUTREACH.  WITH GOD'S HELP, TOGETHER WE CAN TRANSFORM AND SAVE LIVE, EMPOWER THE LOST AND LEAST, PLANT SEEDS OF THE GOSPEL AND PROVIDE EVIDENCE OF THE HOPE WE FIND IN JESUS CHRIST.
