New Photos from Nicaragua

Over the past few days, I have been attending a conference, spending some time with the night time community in the area on a drop in Bus, and going to a Craft fair as well as enjoying being with family and friends, and watching the US Masters Golf: hectic weekend one could say. Then I get an email from Nicaragua.
These Photos are from the team that is currently out there, distributing food aid among the children of Blue Fields and Managua. It is a reminder that we are very fortunate people, in a privileged society that can chose to do multiple and obscure events on a daily basis, as though they were just a matter of course.

That privilege also gives us the freedom to chose to help others live beyond their daily existence of scrapping enough together to buy food to live on for the day. Every day is planned around survival.

Missionary Troy Doudy and the New Jerusalem Church in Nicaragua partner with Feed The Hungry to provide daily meals to over 600 children from the poverty stricken areas of Blue Fields and 600 in Managua.

Feed The Hungry takes missions teams to Nicaragua periodically where they minister to many people through prayer and delivering packs of rice and beans to families. In a country where almost half of the nation lives on less than $1 per day, the food packs are a blessing that show the true and practical love of Christ.
Pastor John Terranova from River of Life went on one of these trips and was able to see how meeting the simplest need of food opened the doors “for the Gospel to be preached.” “People are being set free,” said Pastor John, “and lives are being changed. The kingdom of God is being extended through the ministry of Feed The Hungry.”

By providing food to the children we are breaking the poverty trap, which allows the children to be free to go to school,

It cost us less than £4 for us to provide 100 meals, together we can make a difference.
