DTS Outreach to Nicaragua Update

Tuesday 11/21/17-11/26/17

This week we visited the rock quarry and initiated conversations with people working there. We also helped them by working and breaking rocks alongside them. Many received us well and we had pleasant conversations with them all. We all left feeling tired and admiring the quarry workers for their hard work.

We also had the privileged of creating & leading a VBS at Verbo Church titled “Adventures in Missions.” Each day we created a scavenger hunt that held clues, obstacle courses and a fun lesson for the kids. We hoped the kids would have fun but would ultimately learn that God wants to partner with each one of us to accomplish his mission on earth. Each day after VBS was complete we helped serve the children in the comedor. The team was able to positively engage with the kids and be a blessing to them.

We were able to visit Captain Robert & his boat which is used for medical missions in the neighboring communities. We prayed for him & the boat, that God would bless him and continue to use him & the boat for the expansion of the Kingdom.

We also participated in Bible distribution. It was an encouraging time as most people invited us into their homes to pray for them and their families.

We also were able to lead youth group at Verbo which included games & ice breakers. The kids were shy initially but were able to open up and connect with the team via the games. Vanessa shared her testimony and William shared about overcoming insecurities with God. The youth were very attentive and we were able to pray for them.
