Things are wonderful here. They held the opening rally today at a seminary in Managua. We each met the church that we will be working with. I and 16 others from the U.S. will be at Iglesia Bautista Bethel here in the capital city. They are a very large church. They have six or seven missions churches that we may be working with. They semed to be very prepared and organized, which is a real blessing!
We have a wonderful man with us named Larry Walker who is the ambassador for FBC Dallas. He goes on one trip each month and he has preached in well over 100 counrtries.
I am rooming with a guy named Paul from San José who also got involved with IC through Jack Flinsbaugh. The moderately warm weather makes it feel like a paradise here in Managua, and the hotel is adorned with beautiful vegetation.
Graciela, who also goes to The Ridge back home, was sent out to another location in Nicaragua after the rally to help translate there.
We have two Sunday services (morning and night) tomorrow. We will be starting the week of visitations on Monday, when we will go out in small teams to share the gospel with people in homes, schools, and businesses. I am excited about it!
Thanks again SO much for your prayers. I had an incident today where I thought my trvel belt with my passport (and money, etc) was gone. It appeared suddenly an unexpectedly. I really thank God for that and for your prayers. Please ask God to be at work in our hearts also, to prepare usfor the work ahead. In connection with that, please ask that I will have/make time to be in the Word this week, as I should be.
