Blessings…..Philippians 4-19 And my God will supply every need of yours according to HIS riches in GLORY… You tell me how rich GOD is and it’s easy to tell you how well He can provide. Our VT AG students have been a huge blessing to the training center and have partnered well with our team from Oasis in our afternoon village ministry. What an amazing asset these students have been this week both here at the training center and in the Baptist School. I’m truly excited as they continue to explore areas of development and train the folks here to make the best use of the land that we have.
Once again this afternoon we had a number of team members step out of any comfort box they might have and shared their faith and the plan of salvation in La Fragua. This is the third week in a roll that we have visited this village, mainly because they stated they were hungry and we have food. Both physical and spiritual were delivered on God’s time.
Pastors conference ended today and the men are more than excited that we are holding conference again next week. We did ask the pastor’s to bring their wives in for a special day out. One of the team members spent the morning engaging and blessing all those that attended. I do believe these pastors would come everyday if we offered it. Thankful for all those that make this happen….GOD is glorified…..IHL, Donald and Pammie

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.

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.

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 contact us to discover if you can become part of this wonderful work.
