In the Meeting Room of the Organization of American States

Fr. Walter Loaisiga, OFM Conv., President of St. Francis College, in Moravia, San Jose, Costa Rica, accompanied a group of his students on a visit to the United States. They were invited to Washington, DC, the first week of December 2015, to give a presentation on Costa Rica & Education, to the Organization of American States, the world’s oldest regional organization established in 1889. The presentation was requested due to the fact that St. Francis College, our education ministry in Costa Rica – serving Preschool, Elementary and High School aged students, is the only fully bi-lingual school (English/Spanish) in Costa Rica.
