Sharing the Love of Jesus in Nicaragua

•  supporting and continuing the upkeep of the Children’s Feeding Center facility (Comedor Infantil) in León 
• conducting children’s ministry activities (VBS) at our Children’s Feeding Center and rural church communities
•  funding and assisting in the building of much needed safe and sturdy houses for the Children’s Feeding Center families – seven houses built since 2019
