Because We Care Ministries

New Bus

Good morning and Blessing to all……..Pam and I would also like to wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

There is never a GOOD time of the year to begin a "fund raising" campaign and I’m sure the month of December is probably the worst. Please know that Pam and I have spent a lot of time in prayer before we headed down this road. A couple years ago we purchased a used 26 passenger bus to carry our teams from Managua to Somotillo. This year alone we have had 2 blown motors and had to replace the turbo charger in October. After much prayer we decided to sell "big Bird" and proceed to purchase a new bus. In mid October Roberto found a buyer and big bird is no longer our lemon. We sold the bus for $20,000.00 and immediately put that money down on a new bus. The cost of the new bus is $48,900.00 which leaves us with a $28,900.00 deficit. We are asking all our partners to please pray about helping BWCM to complete this purchase. Our next team will arrive in Managua on 12/27/2014 and we are praying that we will have the new bus available.

Please pray and partner with us to make this happen and to GOD be the Glory.

1 Samuel 12:24
Only fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart. For consider what great things he has done for you.

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.
