Summer Update from Mylinda Baits

It has been an amazingly enriching summer full of generosity, hospitality, learning and inspiration!

Pray for David and Laura Parajon serving in Nicaragua.

David and Laura provide preventive and curative health services to remote and vulnerable communities where there are no doctors through the training and support of health promoters.

Pray for Denise and Juan Aragon who have family in Nicaragua living in the midst of the conflict.

Big Juan and my heart have been aching for Nicaragua our homeland. The government has been shamelessly killing its citizens … The thing that pulls at our heart is that Juan’s mom and siblings and cousins and basically all of his family still live in Nicaragua, they are the ones that have heard the gun shots, the ones that have had to walk from one town to another because of the road blocks, they are the ones that are struggling to buy the essentials, they are the ones worried daily about their child’s wellbeing at school.

Desperate for Water

The village of Bas-Limbe has not had any drop of rain for months. The rivers are all dried up. Water has become like gold in the village.

Walking Together

The ministry of accompaniment reflects God-with-us and for us, expressing unconditional and boundless love.
