Closing Rally in Nicaragua

On our last full day in Nicaragua, the local church where I served took us to a tourist area named Mayasa. It was fantastic! There we enjoyed a breathtaking view of the country's majestic volcanos and enormous lakes. I had the opportunity to ride a horse along a ridge that overlooks the nearby volcano lake.

The experience of God's creation there was exilherating.

That evening we went to the closing rally where project participants from the various nations met together one last time to share testmonials and celebrate what God did in the many church communities throughout Nicaragua where they served that week. There may have been 1000+ people there. Graciela, who also attends church with me back home in Texas, was given the honor of being the onstage translator at that massive event, which was held at the same church in the city of Managua where my team had served all week. That gave me one final opportunity to say good-bye and exchange contact information with some of the dear brothers and sisters in Christ from that church with whom I had served throughout the week.
