Welcome!

Greetings! Many of you have shown an interest in keeping more up to date on what is happening in Nicaragua. So I finally got around to starting a blog. I will try to write every week and include photos so we can take advantage of the 21st century technology and bridge the gap between us. I invite you to join in the communication by leaving your comments.

I have been living in Nicaragua for almost 3 years, and am currently serving in a children’s home that houses little ones from birth – 6 years old. At this time we have 23 children who have been brought to us by the local authorities, the Ministry of Families. The children have suffered severe traumas and are victims of abuse, neglect, abandonment and/or suffering from chronic malnutrition. Due to no fault of their own, they are some of the most disadvantaged children in the poorest country in the entire Western Hemisphere.


I consider it a privilige and honor to be a part of God’s plan for restoring grace in the lives of these children. I look forward to sharing life with you, praise and prayer requests and I invite and encourage you to partner with me in ministering to these angels God has placed in our care.


“Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me…” Mark 9:37 a

So check back often for more news n views from Nicaragua!

Blessings galore!

    You are literally touching the face of Jesus!!

    "Then the King will say...'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared foryou since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothes me, I was sick and you looked after me'...'whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me'" Matt. 25:34-40
