Clubbin’ in February…

We love the impact that we have for Jesus in the lives of kids here in Nicaragua! We call our ministry centers Kid’s Clubs because the Lord has called us here to Nicaragua to bring relief and hope to the lives of young people. It can sound funny when we constatly say we are going to the Club today, or yesterday I was at the Club…reminds me of a funny Saturday Night Live Skit from years ago. But when we go to the Club…we go to serve, we go to Love, we go to have fun…it is the best type of Clubbin’!!!

It was time for some touching up of the walls on the playground at Club Esperanza. Hundreds of kids go running all around this playground all day long every day of the week. We had fun painting and definitely learned a lesson…painting in the shade is much nicer than painting in the sun!!!

Our girls and friends from team hungry came up with a great art project to end the day. We had some extra paint after painting all the walls. So we gathered the entire sixth grade class and created a mural for them with the personal touch of each of their hand prints. It was really fun to watch them run back and take photos afterwards of their own hand on the wall. Sixth grade is a special year at our school, it is the last year before being promoted to high school. So, it was fitting to have this awesome group of kids leave something special at the Club!

Out the Kids Club in Los Brasiles the clubbin’ took on a little more of a feeling like the show Fixer Upper….and it was Demo Day with our friends from Mission For Nicaragua!!! Sparks flying and walls crashing down all to make more space all of these beautiful little faces! God has as special plan and a purpose for each and every one of them! Halleluia!

If you are American reading this you may not have ever thought about the bed you sleep on at night, or maybe you have. To be able to sleep comfortably at night is actually quite the privilege and in a large percentage of the world the more common way to sleep is on an old mattress with one two or three other family members. So, one of the most rewarding projects out there at the Club in Los Brasiles is the project to provide beds for families that need them. We are called as Christians to be the hands and feet of Jesus, and this week our feet walked in the neighborhood and our hands gave the gift of a new bed!

And the blessings just kept coming….do you all remember Connie and her mother Teresa? Well Connie celebrated her 15th birthday and we had a little party at the Club for her! You see, when we say party at the Club it sometimes makes you think of one thing, but Praise Jesus these parties at the Club are part of the best things in life! Not only was the party fun for Connie, we also celebrated her mother Teresa’s new marriage and were able to bless them by helping to build a room on their home for the girls to have their own space. God is good and we love the way he provides! Thank you friends!

Lastly on a personal note, Our kiddos love it when friends come to visit us in Nicaragua. It is a real blessing and might often result in a visit to Pops Ice Cream, or maybe two visits! We are loved and blessed and love serving the Lord in Nicaragua!

Come clubbin’ with us one day soon!
