Hey friends, this is defiantly late but I wanted to give you guys a few prayer requests from my time in Nicaragua. I’m going to keep this short & sweet, but I want to encourage you to press in this month!
***************************************
> The Boys: The boys ministry that Light & Salt is so beautiful & intentional, they have about 44 boys enrolled in the program at the moment. The first thing you can be praying for is their basic daily needs. Most of these boys Coe from a background of poverty & lack. Not only is this hard in the present moment, but it also tends to leave a mindset that sticks around and robs even in the seasons of plenty. Also, please be praying to their salvation. The gospel is being poured into these boys & I believe it is going to make a huge impact on their communities. However, with something so powerful Satan is obviously going to try his best to pull them away. The last thing he wants is strong men leading homes & breaking generational cycles, so let’s fight in prayer here!
> The Parents: For many of the boy’s parents this is the first interaction they have had with the gospel. Just like I said about the boys, the last thing Satan wants is Biblically grounded families. But we serve a God who is far greater & delights in the freedom we get to walk in with Him. So please, be intentional to pray over this opportunity these famous have to know Jesus & walk in life!
> Tara, Alex & Molly: These are the names of our lovely hosts (and their daughter) while we were in Nicaragua. I deeply love them with my whole heart! Tara & Alex has been so faithful to listen & partner with the Lord to build this beautiful ministry. As you can imagine it takes a so much work on their end to keep up with everything, & burnout is a real thing. Please pray into their rest with me, as well as the development of the program. Tara has such a beautiful vision for the program & its growth, so lets partner with her!
> The Staff: From the teachers, to the kitchen staff, & those who do the paperwork. Each one of the staff has such a huge & intentional part in the ministry & genuinely lives life to love & serve those around them. Again, lets pray over burnout, but also just be praying that they will be poured into as well. They truly love so well & so deeply & I know the Father sees them through those same eyes, but I just want them to be reminded always!
>The Ministry: Light & Salt Ministries is putting a ton of work into a new ministry site. They are currently moved in, but there is still a lot of work to be done. Pray for worked, endurance & resources as they continue to grow!
Thank you so much fro joining me in prayer for my family in Nicaragua. I deeply love this place & hope that you can feel just a glimpse of that as you are praying for them. I cannot wait to see my friends again one day & hear the impact your prayers have had in their lives. Thanks for building Kingdom with me all over the world!
So much love,
KEN
