~wednesday night update~Tonight was the first night of the crusade. It was definitely an amazing time of worship. The band was awesome and had lots of energy, so we couldn't help but dance.
Clint and Madison sang tonight, which was a great blessing. Then Clint and Jessica both gave their testimonies. It's so amazing to see how each team member is truly surrendering to what God has for them to say for the people of Nicaragua. Cheryl and Greg both spoke a little to the crowd on how we are going into the high schools each day and sharing about True Love Waits. Gabby ended their talk by saying, "No Sex before Marriage", which shows the importance to start teaching them at an early age.
Mark preached the message tonight with Chico interpreting. His message was a message of love showing that the Bible has a positive message (using the passage John 3:16). We had around 30 people come forward for profession of faith (we'll get an actual count later from the ones that went around getting their information). Praise God!!!
We ended the service with the big raffle. We gave away a couple of t-shirts, a couple of CD Players, and the big prize of $ 50 American dollars which converts to about $900 Nicaraguan dollars (aka $ 900 Cordobas). The service went out with a bang as Gregoiyo (aka Greg) dove off the stage, with no one there to catch him. We were all quite concerned, until he jumps up and shouts, "Gloria Dios!" We do thank God that he was not hurt!!
Buenas Noches (Goodnight) from Brooke

We're so excited to read updates every morning - we look forward to them. Thanks so much for remembering us at home. Brandon, I love you very much and miss you terribly; but the peace I have as you're away confirms to me that you're exactly where God wants you to be this week. Let Him use you to the fullest. Liv and Hunter said hello and they love you. Daddy says he's very proud of you.
Hey Madison- I was so glad to see your face. We can not wait to see you Sunday. It is so fun to hear all the good news and we are glad God is using all of you to impact children there. You all have fun!
