You all have been given such great opportunities….we can’t wait to hear how God moved in your hearts and in the hearts of the people!
Good morning all. I trust you all rested deeply after your busy day yesterday. Sounds like Nicaragua is thirsty for that cup of water only Christ can give them and how amazing that you are being used as that vessle to offer them that drink. looking forward to reading some more.
You guys having been working hard for Jesus and we are extremely proud of everyone of you!! We are constantly praying for strength, health and boldness to reach the people of Nicaragua!! God will give you what you need to finish out your mission strong!
Chelsea and Leah, we miss you both! Ginger has been lost without you. She has been sleeping in the bathroom.
I hope that you are both taking time to truly enjoy the people/kids and the surroundings in Nicaragua! God wants all of you, everything you have so make sure you are giving it to Him! He will give you rest when your mission is complete. We love and miss you both. Take lots of pictures for each other so that later you will be able to look back and remember the awesome time you had helping build His kingdom!
Blessings,
Love,
Mom & Dad
Dear Team,
Amazing news! I can only imagine how incredible your experiences have been on this trip! I can’t tell you all how unbelievably proud I am of the work that you are getting accomplished, the bonding you are doing, the prayer times you must be having, the exhaustion that must be setting in.
I see on the schedule that today is a day of FUN for you – and I’m so glad – because there is great wisdom in schedules that include opportunities for fun times too – that leads to a much more balanced life! Can’t WAIT to hear what “Black Sand Surfing” is and to hopefully see pix of the beach! Enjoy ALL your times together and continue in the good work as well.
Continuing to pray for rest, strength, and patience as your trip winds down…
Galatians 6:9 & 10 – Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
Nicholas Paul – I miss you mucho!

LB!! (please give this msg to Brooke : )
Samuel & I’ve been following the blog all week (yes shocking i know with my “technical” skills ! : ) and when i saw your msg to me I knew i just had to figure out how to leave a comment!! ) Each morning i check your itinerary and pray for divine encounters as you go from place to place, and a hedge of protection around all of you and those you are ministering to. I don’t think i realized how close Nicaragua was to the equator until i looked at our globe yesterday…Just think some day these memories of heat, mud etc will seem so insignificant when you see those familiar faces in heaven. everyone misses you and I can’t go anywhere without someone asking if i’ve heard from you, so i refer them to this incredible blog. : ) we miss you more than words can say but i know you’re where you’re supposed to be and that He is ever before you. The verses below came to mind for you and your team. All of your team’s sacrifices are such an example to those of us who are many years older. Thank you for always being open to follow where He leads. Treasure every moment, hug all of those precious little children for me too and have lots of fun….we look forward to your safe return! love, love, love BB
