This beautiful poster is being put up all over the town where we will be end up staying...This is the translation:
Place of Hope - Mission to the interior of Nicaragua
3 months- June one week- July 2 weeks- August 1 month
3 focuses- social, ministry & spiritual- paint a preschool and houses of the needy, children's programs and help for pastor families- Evanglistic crusade during the evening- It is possible that we may visit another poor community called Chaguita Grande!
3 teams- We will have a team with 27 from John and Linda Rice's church, along with 33 of us for a total of 60.- 3 teams of 20 each, with given assignments and flexiblity to accept change.
3 requests- We hope that through these 3 things (prayer, planning and investing) the heart of God will be fullfilled. Every participant has at least one day devoted to prayer and fasting to consecrate their life for this specific purpose.- That each would be in service. That there would be NO spectators, while we are making history.
Become part of this trip, help us with pounds of basic grain, clothes and toys.
John 10:16 - I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one Shepherd.

Following our noontime departure from Omaha, and upon our arrival in Nicaragua, our first order of business will be to join with a big group of folks from the local church from Masatepe in kicking off a summer-long outreach to the rural area called Terrabona. As it states above, we will be painting, interacting with the children (clowning, handing out the stuffed animals that we are collecting, making balloon animals etc.), encouraging the pastors and their families and having evangelistic services at night. It will be a mission trip within a mission trip!
Please join with us in asking the Lord to prepare the hearts of the people of Terrabona to hear the Good News of the Love of Jesus. Please pray for good weather. Please pray that we adjust well to our new surroundings and that we have much grace as we'll be camping in tents for two or three nights. Most of all, please pray that the Lord will be lifted up and that the people of Terrabona, the folks from the Center of Faith church and that our team will all be drawn closer to Him! Thank you for joining with us!
