Transportation/Upkeep for Pastors’ Motorcycles, Nicaragua

Thanks to the response of our donors over the last few years, the pastors in Nicaragua have all been provided with motorcycles as needed.  These are used to travel from their homes to their church communities and to the Mission Centre in Chinandega for meetings, A number of the older motorcycles are in need of repair and all need regular maintenance.  Many of the pastors have rural parishes, driving many miles daily over dusty, rutted roads.

I want to support transportation for pastors in Nicaragua.
