The Nicaragua team met on Saturday to fellowship and discuss the upcoming mission at the beginning of August. We were so blessed to have Cindy Miller's grandkids join us for the meeting! Lori updated the group the 10 sewing machines have been purchased (four-throttle and six-electric) and are ready for use in Managua. We have also had a very generous donation of 25 sewing kits that will be used during the classes. The classes will center around teaching the women how to make a dress, shorts, and a bag.
Very encouraged about the ways God is consistently answering prayer to meet the needs of this mission, Lori shared that she is constantly amazed at the gifts and talents that are coming together from various different sources. In addition to a continued influx of financial support, a man from Pennsylvania has worked with our group to provide refurbished Mac computers to aid in the mission effort of the Managua community in learning, tracking, and managing the efforts of the women's co-op as they learn to use the sewing machines.
Lori wanted to remind all team members:
- to make sure they get the appropriate shots as recommended by their personal physicians and the Health Department
- to wear their green team shirts the first day when traveling
- to check on Delta Regulations for travel concerning passport i.d. and baggage http://www.delta.com/traveling_checkin/baggage/checked/size_weight_restrictions/index.jsp
