Keeping pastors on the move in Nicaragua

Travelling the roads in Nicaragua is tough on motorcycles and drivers!

Travelling the roads in Nicaragua is tough on motorcycles and drivers!

When pastors in Nicaragua travel from church to church or visit congregation members they use motorcycles. While bus transportation is available, it takes a lot of time and sometimes the buses don’t go where the pastors serve!

Often the roads to these places are nothing more than well-worn dirt trails scored with deep, muddy potholes in rainy season. The conditions are not kind to motorcycles or to the pastors!

Pastor Angel travels weekly close to 200 km from Potosi, to serve three additional congregations including a mission in Cristo Rey. His motorcycle is old and worn out. Unless the church decides to send a new pastor to serve the three additional churches, he will need a new one.

That’s where Concordia Lutheran Mission Society stands ready to help. Keeping the Nicaraguan church in motion on safe wheels is a project already rolling which you can support here.

  1. It is tough going for Nicaraguan pastors. Rev Angel not only has a huge distance to travel on his motorcycle but also has a fever that affects his joints and will last for several months. At our VBS in Potosi, he worked hard all week and then had the trip to Cristo Rey over the weekend. Prayers for these diligent workers and financial support for motorcycles is appreciated and encouraging.
