Team Nica Day 1

Today was awesome!!!  The food outreach was a tremendous success.  We had an amazing turn out from the local village of El Crucero.  Everyone went home from the outreach having been well fed.  The children had a blast playing soccer, getting their faces painted, doing arts and crafts, and having a personal photo to take home with them. 

Tomorrow promises to be another action-packed day where we will provide much needed medical and dental services to the people of El Crucero, as well as, light construction and arts & crafts activities. 

Although this was only our first day, the experiences we shared with the people of El Crucero today certainly touched our lives and we look forward to the experiences God will bless us with throughout the week.

Thanks again for all of your prayers and support,

Team Nica

Friends & Family,

We would like to inform everyone of our safe travels to Managua, Nicaragua.  Thank you for all of your prayers.  We did have a slight snag in our travel plans in that some of our medical bags are being held by customs.  Please pray for a speedy release of those medical bags.  We are all very excited to be here and look forward to our lunch outreach tomorrow with approximately 300 residents of El Crucero.

In God's blessings,

Team Nica

Thank You

As we prepare for our trip, we wanted to say thank you to Ben. We were all touched by the special efforts he made to help collect used soccer gear for the children in and around El Crucero.

Packing Festivities

Sunday, October 12th, provided another moment to reflect on our awesome God. The grace he has bestowed on the people of El Crucero was evident in the 38, 50-pound bags that we packed for our upcoming trip. These bags include medicine, spectacles, soccer gear, tooth brushes, tooth paste, and many other needed items. The team is excited to serve and we can't wait to share our stories with all of you. Please look for our daily email and visit this blog each day for updates and occasional video.

God Bless,
Team Nica
