It has been a while since our last update, so this one will be full! Our Kids Camp was amazing. We had such a great time with about 80 kids over 4 days. We played games, put on dramas, made some pretty cool crafts and even better friends with the kids. Many of them didn't… Continue reading Ministry and Travel Update

Summer Travels
It's hard to believe we are already planning our trip back to the U.S. for this year, but here we are, writing down schedules, finding routes, looking for airline tickets. This yearly trip is two-fold: it is a time for us to rest and relax and it is a time for us to visit churches… Continue reading Summer Travels
Coming Soon
We have a lot going on in the ministry here in Nicaragua these days. I thought I would take a moment and give a brief update on the things we have coming up. If you are interested in being a part of any of these events, or want to help support them, we would love to… Continue reading Coming Soon

With a group of 4 from Oklahoma and some of our staff here in Nicaragua we ventured into cooler temperatures, "rustic" living and mountain hiking to take the Gospel message into 17 schools. Many of the schools we visited were… Continue reading Mountain Mission

The end of… Continue reading A Year of Firsts
Thankful

The house is small by anyone's standard, but it is a beautiful blessing to the family who will soon be living in it. The family receiving the house, and… Continue reading Thankful
Jesus in the Schools
We had an amazing experience here at the WOTC base camp in Nicaragua last Thursday and Friday. We had close to 600 kids from the school down the street in our church (about 300 on Thursday and 275 on Friday), listening to the Gospel message and teachings on how to stay strong in the Lord.… Continue reading Jesus in the Schools

We have been staying very busy and it is hard to believe October is coming to an end. This month Way of the Cross has been hosting its second Missionary Training School at our base camp in Nicaragua.

Life on the Mission Field
We are back in Nicaragua and we will be here for a while. How long, you ask? Well, we aren't exactly sure. We still have a house in Texas, though we won't step foot in that house until August of 2017. For now, we are just taking it a year at a time, believing the… Continue reading Life on the Mission Field
