Nicaragua Orphanage Mission

Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to help fund my rapidlyapproaching trip to Casa Bernabe Orphanage in Nicaragua! Sharing theexperience with friends and family is a rewarding part of this trip.ChipIn has been set up to easily accept donations online. Ifhand-written checks are more your speed, simply make it out to SpringBranch Church and mail it to my home.Why an orphanage in Nicaragua?Nicaragua is the poorest Spanish-speaking country in the world with 2million people living in poverty and a third of the children have somedegree of malnutrition. Spring Branch Church has partnered with CasaBernabe in Nicaragua to support the staff in the mission of providing ahome for orphaned children. Each trip provides different opportunitiesto support the mission of strengthening the orphanage. This trip wewill be serving the staff and children by being present and available,as well as spending quality time with the children. The mission is notonly for the children, but for those of us who travel as well. Matthew9:13 tells us to go and learn what it means to desire mercy. Ourmission is to demonstrate and experience God's love and mercy!
