    I am beginning a new adventure as a full-time missionary to Candelaria, Nicaragua. I will be coming on staff with Adventures in Missions (AIM) and will be going as an AIM-sponsored missionary. I will be moving to Candelaria in January 2010. While in Nicaragua, I will be working alongside New Song Ministries (NSM) run by Tommy and Linda Gable.
    I will be participating in a variety of ministries while working for New Song including: youth discipleship, teaching English, prayer ministry, and hosting short-term missions teams.

   
    My main ministry will be continuing the youth discipleship that my World Race team began last August. I will be conducting small group Bible studies as well as one-on-one mentoring. I am so excited to return to discipling these teenagers and seeing their hearts catch fire for God!

    Since I am a certified teacher, I will be putting that training and gifting to work for the Kingdom. I will be teaching English classes one day per week as part of NSM’s community classes.
    I will also be working with the church’s prayer ministry. This church once had a vibrant intercession ministry, but it has recently faded out. I will be working with some of the church’s prayer warriors to revitalize this ministry. I know that Candelaria can only be transformed through God’s love in action and the power of prayer.
    My other ministry will be to the short-term missions teams coming to work with New Song. I will be living in and running a home for short-term teams. This will mean both coordinating logistics for teams as well as serving and encouraging them while on the field. I am very excited about this ministry! My long-term goal is to run a family living home for orphaned, abandoned, and abused kids. The short-term mission home will be a great stepping-stone to my dream.
    I cannot embark on this adventure without your help! I need the prayer covering and financial backing of supporters like you. Please prayerfully consider joining my support team through a one-time or monthly donation. I need to raise $16,898 to cover all of my ministry, travel, and living expenses for a year. All donations are tax-deductible. You can give online by clicking “Support Me!”. Or you can send checks to:

Adventures in Missions
PO Box 534470

*Please make checks payable to Adventures in Missions and put my name on the memo line.

 
    Your giving will help transform Candelaria for God’s Kingdom and will bring hope to the lives of hurting children and teenagers. Please join me in Nicaragua!
