NewSong Mission

Buenos Noches,

What an amazing first full day we had here in Nicaragua.  After a good night sleep, we woke up and headed back to the airport to meet Demo ( our good friend and translator who is with us the entire time to keep us out of trouble. He did his job, only leading us down 3, One way streets the wrong direction as the first day of driving in Nicaragua came to a close). Today we drove 3 hours NW of Managua to meet with NewSong Ministries.  James Norman ( Diego) showed us around there mission, which includes agriculture , sports, and many other ministries all centered around the New Song Baptist Church.

 After spending the morning touring the mission and meeting everyone, we took off for a few hours to see Leon, visit the famous cathedral, and to pay a visit to some good friends of ours from Remar ( The orphanage we have worked with for many years now).  We returned to New Song to spend the evening ,learning more about the structure of their mission, as well as spend some time with the missionaries that are here long term.

We really enjoyed the day that GOD has allowed us to spend at New Song.  They are wonderful people, and are doing an amazing job in this area.  We hope to spend sometime here again

Tomorrow we head back to Managua, hopefully to catch up with a group from Parkersburg, and structure what is going to be a very busy week. Many new things have come together since we have been here, and know GOD has many more  surprises  and adventures for us this week, ( hopefully no more one way streets) ,

Until tomorrow,

Uncle B-rad
