About Nicaragua

We will be in Somotillo for the largest duration of the trip and spend a couple of days in Matagalpa. Somotillo is a very small, impoverished community that is very rural. Lack of nutrition and medicine are probably the biggest hindrances for people in this area. Matagalpa is a much larger city up in the mountains and although there is a great deal of poverty here as well there is much more development and modern amenities here. One of the ways we will engage in outreach is through hosting baseball camps, this is to help build relationships with local people and be able to share with them the truth of who Jesus Christ is.

What will we do?

We will work with the network of Baptist Churches in Nicaragua much like our own Oklahoma Baptist Convention. In Somotillo, we will focus on outreach through hosting a baseball camp. We will be able to do this in partnership with a local Church in the area. This is strategic, because the church owns the baseball fields, making this a place that people know about and know they can come to even if they think that it is just for baseball, we will get to be a part of them hearing the Gospel and encourage our fellow brothers and sisters. In Matagalpa we will be working with a local contact who manages a language school. This will be an exciting task for us to be a part of as we will focus on helping engage students there for two days and it will be another great opportunity to join in sharing the Gospel.

How to pray:

Our goal when visiting Nicaragua is always to come along side and champion the local church. We do this not by teaching the locals things. They teach us way more than we teach them! We champion the local church by building relationships. Our goal is to develop deep connections as we minister to them and thus helping the local church with the opportunity to disciple those individuals.
