80+ Say "Yes" in Estel?, Nicaragua

Our team of teachers from Florida and Texas and our partners from Managua made the 3 hour trip northward to the city of Estel? to work in the Open Door Baptist Church.

This would be the first Practically Speaking English event in that city.  We attracted hundreds of children, teenagers and adults to our English course.  Daily attendance held steady with almost 200 children, about 100 teenagers and more than 100 adults.

In the end, Pastor Clemente and his church have hundreds of new families to visit, including 80+ teens and adults who said "yes" to Christ during our evangelistic English course.

We are already planning a return trip to Estel? for an evangelistic event such as family movie night.

Our 2012 Outlook (continued)
We are challenging ourselves, and you, to reach more people with the gospel in 2012 than in any previous year.   
 

We have already completed five evangelism event in 2012.  More than 250 adults and teens have said "yes" to Christ.  By any measure, God has given us a great start in the new year.  So, once again, we have a full calendar with lots more events planned in Nicaragua and elsewhere.

Each year we are able to reach about 2000 adults and 2000 children with the gospel. In the time the Lord allows us to continue our work, we hope to reach that many and more this year.

This year we plan to begin a church planting movement among the university students of Managua.  Joe Wilson is the most expert church planter that we know and we will be working with him in this movement. We have worked with him for years in Eastern Europe and Russia.

This year we are adding paid staff to our work in Nicaragua. As we identify Nicaraguan Christians who are called to full-time service, we want to be able to pay them a monthly stipend to assist us in expanding our work there.

This year we hope to add "micro-events" in support of our partner churches. These will be evangelistic outreaches to the communities. For example: pastor training, family and marriage seminars, discipleship seminars and evangelism training.  If you are interested in teaching or facilitating one of these "micro-events', please contact us.
