Holy Radical T-shirts, Batman! Pray for the work of the Water Project in Nicaragua!

When last we left our caped crusader...sorry, couldn't resist that, but seriously, wanted to pass along an update from Daniel Richeson at Viera Water Network on the work on getting a clean water system to Las Lajas, a village in the mountains in Nicaragua.  If you remember, we are helping to sponsor this project with the sales of our Bay West T-shirts.

Daniel emailed me and sent some pictures and I'm going to copy the email report from Maynor Curtis, who works with us in Nicaragua as a translator when we go.  Maynor is heading up the project onsite with the Mennonite Church that is working with the villagers to build the water system AND sharing Christ with them as they work on the project side by side.  GREAT NEWS and GREAT needs of prayer for the people and for Maynor personally.  You can read it below.

"Hello Brother Daniel! I return to Grenada on Thursday afternoon and Friday at 4:00 am, I was taken to hospital because I had high fever, cough, body aches and my blood pressure was down, 90/70. I was in the hospital until Sunday afternoon. I am serving as his interpreter, but with some difficulty, because I still coughing. For the last 5 weeks we could not work on the water project, but we had advanced a little, and the reason is the heavy rains in Nicaragua.

The rivers have plenty of water and we have to stay in Panama for 37 days, without returning to our homes because we could not cross the river that is on route to Los Panama and the Caribe.

On October 18 collapsed part of the hill, where we were and the water entered into the house at night, when we were sleeping, but thank God, we suffer losses of 20 bag of cement. The Mennonite church, going to buy others 20 bag of cement, (100 pound per bag); but the owner of the house, he lost some rabbits and some chickens. Next week, I returned to finish the work of the water tanks and then I will send the full report.

In Christ,

Maynor Curtis

The unprofitable bondservant of our Lord Jesus Christ"

 Our job is not through with the sending of the money to Nicaruagua...we need to PRAY! 

Here is specifically what I am charging you personally to pray with every day.

1)  For Maynor's health as he continues to try to run the project at far less than 100%

2)  For the weather to be conducive to finishing the project

3)  Praise God for the many who have accepted Christ in working on the project (over 23 at last count)

4)  Praise God the loss due to the damage of the hill collapsing was minor, but also pray for the owner who had losses, that God will bless him for helping with this project.

4 things...pray every day...this is part of our Radical Experiment and it's not done yet!
