I recently returned from Nicaragua. I traveled with a group of about fifty others from various churches in the area. Within a weeks time, we helped build houses, held medical and dental clinics, and did Vacation Bible School. We stayed at a quaint hotel on the beach but walked a mile every morning to a third-world village whose residents had virtually nothing. It was a whirlwind of a trip, being busy from sunup to sundown, but I am so glad to have been a part of it. Here are just a few pictures capturing my adventures.
