I can’t believe that today is the
7th day we have been in Nicaragua; we are already half way through
the trip! We thought we would be helping
build or start the process of building a chapel, but things have changed and
now we have been called to build an emotional connection with the community
instead. Today we went on a 3 hour walk
into the community, hiking more than 4 miles.
We went to many homes today preaching the word of God and telling
everyone about when mass would be held.
We also assisted the families in any way possible, whether it was the
nurse helping the sick or Francisco helping fix a mans TV. It warms my heart that all the Nicaraguans
have been so friendly and loving towards us.
The kids are the cutest, and each day communicating gets easier and
easier. I’m extremely blessed and
thankful for this opportunity to serve others and preach the word of God and I
am sad the trip is coming to an end.
I’ve met so many great new people, who I know I will stay close friends
with in the years to come.
P.S. Hi Mom, Dad, Heidi and everyone back home, I am
thinking and praying for you all. I miss
everyone so much and can’t wait to tell you all about my trip. The food has been AMAZING; I’ve never eaten
so many mangos before. I love you all,
stay safe and see you soon. xoxo
