In
a little more than a week a team of 18 believers (men and women and children)
from WEPC will be heading to Managua, Nicaragua to serve the children at the
Casa Bernabe Orphanage. We are in final preparation mode. As we
finalize our plans, pack our bags and check things off our to-do list, we are
in need of prayer - that God will complete our preparations and prepare our
hearts for this journey and week of service.
Our team will be completing various work projects on the orphanage grounds, conducting soccer clinics and sharing evening devotionals with the children. For many, this will be their first time visiting an orphanage or even Nicaragua for that matter. We will be seeing things and hearing stories that will break our hearts. For that we need strength that only the Lord can provide. We will also be working alongside each other 24X7 for a week, which will bring the potential for stress. For that we will need patience that only the Lord can provide. Some of us will be apart from loved ones back in Richmond, which may make us anxious. For that we will need comfort and peace.
It is awesome to be going on this mission trip and know that we have the Lord with us and the power of prayer from our supporters covering us.
