God is at work in the community of La Esmeralda, Nicaragua, and it is time to follow as he provides for the future.
This April Fox River Missions is sending a men's team down to partner with the church in constructing a building for their children's ministry and plans to get a bathroom built too.
Pastor Denis, his team, and a team from the Managua church have been hard at work getting the structure of this building up. They have done all the the foundation work and just this week the team for Managua have been up there putting up the structure and roof. Our guys will go in and finish the project up. How exciting it is to watch the progress of this project!
Let me share with you the importance and excitement for these facilities..
As of right now the children meet on the porch of Pastor Denis' home or in a home close to the church. They currently do not have an inside place to hold Sunday school or any other children's activities during church services.
This building will bring them inside so that in the rainy season it will not effect how they do children's ministry. This building will give them a space that they can grow and have no problem having space for all the children who come. It will also give them the capacity to have a nursery which has never been a possibility before. A space that Pastor Denis and Karen's children and the children from the community can grow up and hear what Christ has done for them. And so much more! We are so excited to see how God uses this building!
And for the bathrooms... currently the church has no bathroom. This might seem silly, but having a bathroom on church grounds will be so beneficial. I believe that this very simple thing will be used to grow this church. This will be a huge blessing!
There are more projects on the list to continue to build up this church and just not enough time for our guys to get it all done. But, we know Pastor Denis and his teams will continue to work towards the future, so that this church will continue to see lives changed.
We have called this project 'Constructing a Future' because this is all about the future of this church, the future of these children, the future of the Kingdom!
Pray for this future with us!
