God's work in Nicaragua

Hey guys,

This trip has been amazing. We have been playing and sharing with so many people and we have seen a ton of people come to trust the Lord. Its so good because they have a Campus Crusade staff here who will follow up with all these guys and establish discipleship and continue to pour into these guys lives.
We have had so great opportunites for service inside and outside the facility where we are staying. The other day we stayed here at the sight the entire day. We painted and scraped rust and also built the most amazing prayer area back in the woods. It was a great opportunity to bless Jimmy ( the guys who owns the place and works for Crusade), he only wanted a bench under a tree and we bulit 7 benches and a fire pit ( that we have used the last 2 nights) and lined a trail with bamboo. It was a whole team effort. As an added bonus we all got to use machetes to chop bamboo, and trees, and build a path. It was a great chance to bless him, he came out last night an had worship with us and it was amazing.
The other night there was some uproar in Hondorus (Nicaragua's border country) and Jimmy thought it would be a good idea to play a little joke. So alot of the guys were getting nervous because some violence had spilled over into Nicaragua (no where by us I might add) so at 4:30 am two nights ago while everyone was asleep, Jimmy had the guard unload a clip and set of fireworks right outside of our window. Guys where diving for cover jumping into closets and under beds and Jimmy came through with a camera and took pictures of everybody. I just thought I would add that little bit because it was one of the best practical jokes I have ever seen.
All the guys on the team have really came together as family. These 21 guys have so much passion it is amazing. We have all seen awesome things happen inside our team and in our outreach. We have all become family over a short period of time and its has been such a blessing being able to spend this last month with these guys.
Today we go to Granada because the professional team asked us to come pray with them before their playoff game and watch the game. Be praying for this because we will get the chance to share with around 10,000 at the stadium and more because the game is televised nationally. It is going to be an awesome opportunity to do outreach on a massive level.
I am so excited about what God is doing through these guys here and in the community in Nicaragua. We have built relationships with people and really touched peoples lives. The Spirit has been moving in awesome ways. I can wait to let you guys know what awesome thing God has in store next.
Gracia y Paz
