Our largest new area of work is the Hurricane Felix relief and redevelopment we’re doing on Nicaragua’s north Caribbean coast.

The project dovetails with our other work in Puerto Cabezas, which Felix hit hard. Besides a church we operate two schools on opposite ends of town, an orphanage, a restaurant and conference center, an intensive boys and girls discipleship program, and a church and school on the Coco River.

Building Up Homes

We jumped into house reconstruction in a badly damaged Miskito Indian village 40 miles out of Puerto Cabezas and in an almost entirely flattened very poor Puerto Cabezas neighborhood. We’re building the homes raised up on posts in the traditional Caribbean style, but with much better reinforcing techniques We’re the first relief group to begin construction. In addition we’re importing bean seeds for the many villages that lost their seed stock and need to begin planting.
