Nicaragua mission trip was a great learning experience in my missionary journey! Under the able guidance of Mr. John Coulter, we were able to lead a group of young people to work with the Lutheran Christian mission in Nicaragua. Our ten day stay resulted in renovating a church, visiting the surrounding communities, and providing clothes and other goods to the children who were in need. While the Lord helped us to survive an earthquake, His Word continuously strengthened us and enabled us to visit the earthquake affected areas. Mr. John Coulter did an exceptional job in documenting the damage. Although I was able to connect with the people and culture immediately because of my Indian background, there were many things which I tried to learn. There is one specific thing that really fascinated me. Although people were poor, their faith was very rich which they were manifesting publicly. The major difference between India and Nicaragua was that I did not see any paganism or idols in public places.  It was like a fresh breeze! This trip is especially beneficial because I may be able to implement some specific mission strategies in India which I leaned in Nicaragua. I am sure our young people also learned a lot from this trip. On the whole, the entire trip was Perfecto! Thank you for sending me. Amen.
