05 Managua Nicaragua

Plans are well under way for a summer mission trip to Managua, Nicaragua the summer of 2010.  A dozen leaders from Campus Life have signed up for the mission trip with Forward Edge out of Vancouver, Washington.  What will we be doing? 

We will be visiting babies and children at the local orphanages and assisting the laborers at the Village of Hope, a group of homes built for children taken out of the Managua dump.  We will have opportunity to help and to demonstrate God’s love to the people of  Managua, Nicaragua.  It will be an amazing experience in which we are all looking forward.

The organization in which we are partnering, Forward Edge, is developing property and building Esperanza in Managua.  The safe haven for abused or otherwise at-risk children.  We will have the opportunity to work along side the laborers in the development.  We will also attend the church services at Verbo’s El Faro Church, “Lighthouse” church.  El Faro is located near Managua’s city dump, called La Chureca.  families from La Chureca attend El Faro for church.  Each day our team will experience daily devotionals and nightly debriefs as a team, with the hope and prayer that God reveals Himself to each team member in a new way.

Being that this is next summer, there is still a huge amount of work to be done.  We are all excited about what God will do in and through us.  We have room for a few more participants.  If you would like to know more, give me a call!
