Deuteronomy 24:19

“When you are harvesting your crops and forget to bring in a bundle of grain from your field, don’t go back to get it. Leave it for the foreigners, orphans, and widows. Then the LORD your God will bless you in all you do”

Tonight as I think about the energy that has been put into the production of different crops here at the training center this passage of scripture came to mind. We have turned the corner on a few fields and will certainly praise GOD for all that HE has done. Today several different vegetables were harvested and taken to the market to be sold. We don’t have to advertise the harvest

it seems our neighbors know before we do. When I look at this verse then I have to think its GODS way of providing.
So very thankful for everyone that has helped with this project. I think the next big challenge will be keeping the momentum that has started and continue on a steady course of growth. It now seems that our goal of having training classes by early summer is obtainable. (Prayers Please)
As excited as I am over the harvest here at the center, it doesn’t begin to compare to the joy in heaven over 3 teenagers and 1 adult man that prayed to receive CHRIST last night at Prince of Peace Baptist Church. Thankful that GOD allowed me to part of both harvest. IHS, 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.
