As you have probably inferred, I am pretty behind on my blog, but I am not too worried. Alabanza, gloria y honor a solamente Dios verdadero y santo!  I want to encourage you before I tell you about day before yesterday.

Nicaragua Mission Trip Update – Morning

Hello everyone! I planned to write you on the flight last night, but unfortunately, we didn't have Wi-fi on the flight. So, because of this, I am writing you now. Last night, our flight was delayed from 6:10 to 7:50, so our 3 hour 44 minute flight landed quite late. To add on top of …
