This is the family we will be directly serving in Nicaragua, in addition to our work at Campo Alegria. See the 'house' they live in? There are four of them now and a new baby on the way. They all sleep on the dirt floor inside of this shack. Rain falls in on them while they are sleeping. The father works milking cows for $2.50/day, almost all of which goes toward food.
The building team members of our group will be pairing up with Adam Todd, The father of this family, and a local contractor to build a cement block structure in place of this shanty. We will give them a cement floor and walls, which will provide shelter from the elements, as well as a cleaner environment in which to live.
This family lives one mile down the beach from Campo Alegria. I am sure that our building ministry will not be the end of God's work in their lives. Be praying for this family, I have no information on their spiritual beliefs, I only know that God has paired our team with them intentionally. And that He has a purpose for them in this world. Maybe one day they too will be equipped with the knowledge of the scriptures to fulfill their part of The Great Commission. This is possible with your prayers and the work of willing missionaries.
