Seeing a need for energetic, nonprofit work in this area, we formed our organization to provide sensible solutions. We've consistently grown since then, all thanks to the helping hands of this amazing community,Church's,nonprofits and the world Our project started in 2007 when hurricane Felix hit a small, unheard of village named Boom Sirpi in Nicaragua. Boom Sirpi is home to the indigenous people known as the Miskito Indians and before the storm consisted of 87 little huts. After the hurricane only four of the huts remained, and the future looked bleak for the Miskito people.

Our project started in 2007 when hurricane Felix hit a small, unheard of village named Boom Sirpi in Nicaragua. Boom Sirpi is home to the indigenous people known as the Miskito Indians and before the storm consisted of 87 little huts. After the hurricane only four of the huts remained, and the future looked bleak for the Miskito people. Since 2007 we have taken over 20 teams down to help rebuild the village and by 2013 we had built 90 houses. At that point it was time to build the village a church, and with the Lord’s blessing and the Miskito people’s help we were able to complete the church in 2014. Native missionary Diego Perez has been instrumental in getting the church established and holds a service every Sunday in the church for the Miskito people.
But the church is so much more than the building itself. It is made up of people who regularly attend and hunger for the teaching of the gospel. Due to the enthusiastic reception by the people, the ministry has been expanded to include a Bible study and a children’s program every week. In addition, a month of Bible training in January is offered with the help of the Nicaragua University. We have partnered with the college to provide some of the villagers who are interested in missions and pastoral work an opportunity to study the Bible at a college level, with graduations being greatly celebrated in the village every December. My favorite month though is September. That is when we focus on outreach and discipleship and also when we hold our baptisms. It is always an exciting time to see new believers follow the Lord in believer’s baptism. As a practical demonstration of Christian love, at least once a month we also feed the elderly and single parents and provide various support services.
Spring is their dry season and that is when most of the work trips take place. Things usually get rolling in April when I go down to meet with the elders of the village and Diego to assess the situation so that the upcoming trips can focus on the most pressing needs. May and June are when the work teams are assembled, materials are shipped, and the team members make their way to the village. They are all volunteers and are from all over the world. With your continued prayers and support we are planning to build 10 new houses as the needs of the village increases. These houses cost about $6,000 and we are usually able to complete about two year.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve conditions. Your generous donation will fund our mission.
