Serendipity has brought together 8 people of differing backgrounds with a common heart to serve God. Their direction is to go to the Northern region of Nicaragua and help a local Pastor repair his churches damaged by mudslides and tornadoes. Also, using the talents of the group a small medical clinic for the people of the community is also planned. This independent group needs you prayers and support for this week, July 22-29, 2007.
Pastor Josue Elias Raudez supervises a small church in Esteli, Nicaragua, Centro Misionario de Vida Nueva. He has also helped establish 4 more churches in the Northern region in the Departments of Esteli and Nuevo Segovia. Having no affiliation or financial support from churches in more developed nations, Pastor Josue manages to not only teach God’s word in his community but offer 2 shifts of lunch programs for school children in Barrio San Fransico, Esteli. In the past two years with the help of the men in the local communities, Pastor Josua has planted 4 additional churches in this region.
In the fall of 2005 this church was completed in Las Cruces. In the foreground are the hand made blocks used in construction.
Another church constructed in the community of Los Llanos was built in 2006 only to be destroyed by tornadoes this winter.
Please consider supporting this mission with your prayers and contributions.
