In May this year, a national “Fill the Gap” campaign was leaders and preach in a local church, as well as visiting
launched in Nicaragua. GOOD NEWS for Everyone!
Executive Director Iain Mair attended the launch of
the campaign and shares with us what he witnessed
firsthand.
“During my visit to Nicaragua, spent in and around
Managua, the capital of Nicaragua, I was able to meet
with many pastors, share at a conference of church
local schools to present Bibles to the students.
At the conference of church leaders, it was both very
encouraging and very humbling to see the overwhelming
gratitude of the Pastors as they each received a quantity
of Bibles to support the evangelical outreach of their
churches, enabling them to more effectively share the
Good News of the Gospel in their local communities.
These Bibles were paid for through the generosity of
members, Friends, and other supporters of GOOD NEWS
for Everyone!, support that will enable many more
Nicaraguans to be introduced to the Lord Jesus Christ,
which of course is the Objective of GOOD NEWS for
Everyone!
Following both morning services of the church I attended
on Sunday, groups from the church headed out into the
local area to share the Gospel in personal evangelism. It
challenged me as to how much similar activity is needed
in our country.
At one school a pupil came up to me and said ‘hullo’. I
noticed he was wearing a large shiny cross on a chain.
I commented on his cross and asked him if he knew
what the cross meant. When he replied that he didn’t I
asked if he would like to know the story of the cross, to
which he enthusiastically reply ‘Yes’. It was a wonderful
opportunity to share about Jesus, which ended with this
young lad praying to receive Jesus into his heart as Lord
and Saviour." Iain is pictured left with the pupil.
"Please continue to pray for the work in Nicaragua,
that this very poor country materially, will be greatly
enriched spiritually through the work that you are
generously supporting.”
