Greetings from Nicaragua. We just celebrated our two year anniversary ((April 1st)) of living in Nicaragua, wow! Insane how fast time has flown. Thinking back how how God has worked so many things out for us to get here, all the doors He opened and closed, times when I doubted things, but then God always confirmed it and I knew that this is where we were suppose to be.
We just finished up our Spring Outreaches, lots of new people and some faces we’ve seen before. Lives changed, miracles happened, it was good. One outreach in particular, I did an interview of a young man by the name of Isaac, he shared his experience at the Potter, and talked about how when we are going through fire, we need to Trust God and have faith, because He’s going to be beside us every step of the way, and then a couple days later, him and a few others were playing a game outside (in the dark) and he fell into a fire pit and got first and second degree burns on his legs. It was so impacting to the other students on how his attitude was the whole time, some wrote him notes on how he’s touched their lives already just from watching him, it was great! When we showed the video at the end of their outreach, everyone had to laugh at what he said because of what had happened, but it was very impactful for everyone because of his attitude and what he had to say in the interview. It's amazing to see how God works in various ways in touching peoples lives. I'll post the video link below.
Our 3 lovely interns, Megan, Collette & Kelsey have returned home. It's been very different not having them here, but it's been really awesome seeing their transformations during these past 3 months.

On the 18th, Caleb and I went to this community called "Cristo Rey". We got to work with a bunch of youth kids doing a photo scavenger hunt. It's a lot like the dump we work in beside the base called Valle de Volcan. But Cristo Rey is very BIG and there's roughly about 17,000 people who live beside this dump. We had a lot of fun with them and of course our team won the challenge, now they want us to come back so we're on their team :) It was a lot of fun because we got to built new friendships with these young people. Most of them are into drugs and\or prostitution and wind up pregnant at a young age. Please keep the people of Cristo Rey in your prayers, that God would keep changing the hearts of the people there.

OK, so we would like to ask you guys to prayerful consider jumping on our monthly support team if your not already. Why? Because we've completed our two year commitment and some of our monthly supporters were no longer able to continue support. But we feel like we are needed here until fall, so things run smoothly as we transition out of our roles here in Nicaragua.
