But ye shall receive power, when the Holy Spirit is come upon you: and ye shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea and Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

This is a picture of a house I found on the side of the road during a mission trip in July. The family that lives here is extremely poor. This house is made only out of sugar cane. It has no protection from the weather and has only a small section that is used for the bedroom of the parents and two children.

This is a good example of the types of families I am ministering to in Somotillo, Nicaragua. There are no jobs there, so families survive on pennies a day if that.

When we arrived, this family had not had any food in several days. The husband was out working trying to earn all that he could but had not returned to his wife and children.

This specific region of Nicaragua is about 3 hours from the capital and is currently not being reached for Christ. There are over 300 villages in this area and to my knowledge only about 80 - 90 are being helped in any way.

It is my dream to help these families find ways to become self sufficient. They have a lot of pride and want to work; they just don't have the resources to do so. In helping these families become self sufficient it allows me the opportunity to show them the love of Christ and how much more he wants to bless them. Building relationships, builds trust, which in turn builds the Kingdom.
