A Week of Transformations

This week was spent with my home church, BridgePointe Church out of Owensboro, KY. Throughout this week we saw many different types of transformations.

In the community of Ticuantepe, we thought we were going to just put a roof on a church, but we basically built an entire sanctuary for this church. Being in this community we saw many things transformed. Of course, you have the obvious transformation of wood and tin into a place of worship:

Also, we were able to visit the community of El Canon and see some more transformations there. First, Jessica was able to use her skills and passion of cutting hair to bless and transform the look of about twelve or so girls in the orphanage.

The girl were loving this time with Jessica and they were all getting all of their hair cut off. Also, we were able to build soccer goals for a local field that the younger men of El Canon use to play on each day. Prior to this they only had sticks but now they have metal goals with nets!

Finally, we were able to donate multiple boxes of school supplies to the director of the school here in El Canon. If this picture doesn't say enough she was VERY excited about it all. "I don't have the words to describe how I feel right now!" - Directora Maria

But above all we were able to come down to Nicaragua and plant seeds in many individuals lives and let the Lord grow them and transform their lives. BridgePointe thank you for sending this group here to Nicaragua and know that they have blessed this country and I feel that they have been blessed by Nicaragua as well!
