What's NEW?

Back in Nicaragua, and happy to be here! Rainy season and all!!!

It is so beautiful, lush and green. I am in awe of your wonderful creation LORD. The words from Isaiah 55 v 12 come to mind; "You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and the hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands." I join Creation in praising you LORD.

Thank you to all who made my time in USA so fruitful and rewarding. I love you!!

I made several interesting contacts while I was in Florida and plan to follow up on them here over the next couple of weeks. Please pray for God's direction for my meetings with: Food for The Poor, Angels of Hope Orphanages, ANF/American Nicaraguan Foundation, Arms of Love Orphanage and La Vina (to name a few.)

"See I am doing a new thing! I am making a way in the desert, and streams in the wasteland." says The LORD in Isaiah 43

And indeed He is doing a new thing in my life.

God has provided me with an opportunity to work as a teacher’s aide in a local Christian school here. It is a missionary position that pays a basic living stipend. This will help me to take care of some things that my previous budget did not allow. Mostly health & dental care, maybe also a car, and at some point a home of my own. I have been hitching rides and taking public buses, which I don’t mind at all but it is getting increasingly dangerous, especially as a single female.

The Nicaraguan Christian Academy (NCA) is dedicated to raising up a new generation of leaders to bring this country out of the darkness it has been entrapped in for so long. This matches my vision for Nicaragua.

It will be quite different for me to be ministering to children at the school, a new responsibility in a totally new environment.

I feel strongly about continuing to work with children in need, in orphanages and in the streets, and I pray that God will make it known to me how He wants me to do that.

One of my future visions is to be able to provide a safe place, a home for children in critical need, and I press on with that goal in my heart.

I appreciate your prayers and invite you to stay with me as we go forward to the next scene in the Epic Adventure of Life.
