This Thursday I'll be heading down to Nicaragua with Connie Rock, one of my co-workers, to visit our AIM base and spend some time with our staff there. I'm looking forward to seeing the ministries that our staff have spent the past couple of years setting up. I'm constantly asking the Lord to show me what He's doing in the world, and this is yet another opportunity to see it with my own eyes. It will be a different kind of trip for me as I won't be leading a team. It should be a fairly relaxing trip where we get to go and encourage and pour into the team and staff in Nicaragua. We're also going to be spending a few days in Costa Rica. There's some excitement that comes with a trip like this. I don't really know what to expect. But I know that God has a plan for this time in Central America and I can't wait to get down there.
Please pray for:
· Seek God's heart. We don't have a strict schedule which allows us to pray and seek where and what the Lord would have us do. I'm really looking forward to this as He always seems to surprise us.
· Safe travel. We'll be flying into Managua, then driving to Granada where the team is. After a few days there, we'll be traveling by bus down to Costa Rica for a few days before returning to Granada.
Refreshing. Pray that even though we'll be on the go quite a bit, that this trip will be refreshing. Many times a change of pace and a change of place is just the recipe for a refreshing time!
