Haggai 2:7-11 was John's text for our morning devotions.

Why come on a mission trip to Nicaragua? The friendships, the work God has called us to here, going into all the world.  We need to care for the ministry at home as well as those around the world, including the little green church in Lajoya and their ministry to their impoverished neighbors.

Pray as we return and give/receive hugs ... to prepare the week of work in these neighborhoods.

Thank you to our prayer warriors from St. John's, including Tom and Linda yesterday, and Margie and John today.

Candi, Ella, Sandy, Nancy, randy  ... Thank you also for what you did to be Senders for us as Goers.

Francisco arrived as John led our devo time. What a delight to see a familiar amigo.
