A week or so ago, our boss Rasta asked Hannah Gazan and I to create a video about the testimonies of our YWAM leaders! YWAM Puerto Viejo is a relatively new base, and they are still getting established as far as networking and support, so Rasta is hoping that this video will help put some faces to their organization. 

Seems simple, right? Here’s the kicker. I was tasked with the translation. Needless to say, it was a very comical process. 

While editing, my laptop decided to shut off and never turn back on. Then Hannah’s imovie kept generating whacky unreadable files. And Costa Rican youtube is straight up weird. But honestly doing it with Hannah was such a blast. And we had to trust the Lord with every tech issue. 

It was INCREDIBLE to dive deeper into the testimonies of our local leaders! These people have poured into me so much, and the way that they love the Lord and love us has shaped me in a huge way. So although the video and audio quality turned out less than ideal, the stories are beyond incredible. I hope you enjoy!

  1. What a wonderful way to serve! And it looked like you had fun (other than the technology part) doing it.

  2. AHHH!!! I didn’t know you and Hannah did this together! That’s fantastic! I saw Hannah’s post earlier today and just went nuts telling her how great the video is. Now you deserve that same love and adoration to be poured out on you! <3

    A-MAZ-ING! That’s what I have to say and the translations were outstanding (well, for this old lady’s rusty Spanish, it seemed outstanding!)

    I’m so thankful for your generosity with your gifts. Seeing all these people IRL is just so fun for me!

    Thank you!
