NICARAGUA 2006 MISSION TRIP

TRIP DATES: July 29 – August 7, 2006

WHICH "WEBBS" Went:  Dan, Jaime and Dylan.

MISSION: Minister salvation, deliverance, healing and encouragement to the people of Nicaragua. We worked in conjunction with the ministry established by missionary Sandy Carter, in her orphanages and with other nearby churches, doing outreaches in churches and on the streets.  This was the first mission trip ever for Jaime and Dylan. I know that we have been personally and forever impacted even as we have brought lasting hope, salvation and joy to those living there. We traveled with a team of nine from King of Glory Christian Fellowship in Swannanoa, North Carolina. We had “sidewalk Sunday school” format, where we made balloon animals, blew bubbles, hugged and played with the children, performed funny dramas (and more serious ones), each to explain the gospel message, followed by a short message and invitation to receive Christ.  Afterward every single child present would be given a packet with several bible coloring pages, a gospel tract, 8 crayons, candy, and an appropriate toy.   Every outreach was done in connection with a local pastor who will follow up with the children and adults present.  Also, for the local pastors, our team of nine managed to fit 316 bibles in our suitcases, in addition to over 1000 packets for children.

Approximately 2,440 lives were impacted, and approximately 160 children responded visibly to the gospel being preached.

THANKS to all of you who sacrificed so much for the Kingdom.
