The majority of pastors in Nicaragua travel by motorcycle to their church, on visits in the community, and back and forth to the mission centre in Chinandega. Two motorcycles are needed for church workers in Central America, each costing about $1700 USD.
I want to support missionary transportation in Nicaragua.
Housing support is needed for Pastor Rufino as he continues his mission outreach in Jinotepe and La Pita for 2019.
I want to support Pastor Rufino.
Since 2015 youth from Nicaragua, Honduras and Costa Rica have met annually at the Mission Centre in Chinandega for a National Youth Gathering. More recently there have also been spin-off regional youth gatherings held in Matagalpa, Jinotega, and Costa Rica. If you are compelled to help the youth continue to meet, and grow in their faith, please support this worthy project.
I want to support youth ministry.
There are currently 34 deaconesses and three assistants (maestras) consecrated for diaconal and educational work in congregations. They conduct the Children’s Education Program in their congregations under the supervision of their local pastors and with coordination from Lutheran Church–Canada. This project is to provide a complementary stipend of approximately $18-$20 per month to assist with transportation and expenses.
I want to support the deaconesses.
Pastor Roque Tijerino travels to Rivas from Granada up to three times a week, continuing the Bible studies, worship services and feeding programs that Pastor Rufino started there. Facility rental is $500 CAD per month.
I want to support Pastor Tijerino and the people of Rivas.
This program will help church workers receive funds so they can start a business, farm some land, and begin self-sustaining projects to provide ongoing funds to care for their families.
I want to help church workers in Central America become self-supporting.
The church workers in Central America do not have any medical plan or health security. Creating an urgent medical care fund will help provide immediate care for church workers and their families when in need.
I want to help church workers with their medical expenses.
