About Nicaragua...

Nicaragua is the largest country in Central America. To the north it is bordered by Honduras, and to the south by Costa Rica. Nicaragua is the second poorest country in the western hemisphere, partly because of the long civil war of the 1980's and the devastation caused by hurricane Mitch in 1998. The vast majority of the five million inhabitants live in abject poverty with many suffering from severe malnutrition and starvation.

Who Can Volunteer?

Anyone with the desire to minister to hurting people in another culture can  volunteer! Experience is helpful but not required. The ability to speak Spanish would be a plus, but we always have interpreters who assist in our work. Each team spends about a week in country ministering to the Nicaraguan people in some of the more remote villages.If you are interested in learning more, please write to Donald, to discover if you can become part of this wonderful work

Our Ministry...

This ministry helps people meet their chief need for a Savior, while also helping to meet the critical physical needs of hunger, poor substandard housing, shortage of water, lack of schools and education, lack of churches and pastor sponsorship. We offer general economic, healthcare, and emergency relief. To date we have helped feed tens of thousands of hungry people with hundreds of tons of food.

About BWCM Ministries...

Because We Care Ministries was founded in 2000 by Dr. Donald Gillette.  We believe that when "God shows up, he shows off."  We stand amazed at what he is using the ministry to accomplish.  BWCM is a Christian non-profit organization.  The ministry is inter-denominational.  Our mission is to evangelize the lost.  We witness through various relief ministries to the people of  Nicaragua.

"Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18Then Jesus came to them and said, All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." --Matthew 28:16-20

This passage gives Jesus' final and most important charge to his followers. His command is as real to us as it was to the disciples. As they stood watching Jesus ascend to his place in Heaven, they were left with the most crucial task in all of human history. We who await his return must follow the command.
