Nicaragua, the Flagship Project

Why go on a missions trip?
A missions trip to Nicaragua will give you the opportunity to see a culture all its own. You can see inner-city, small city, farming community and rustic cloud forest ministry first hand. You can be with fellow Christians, serve with them and form new friendships. But, most importantly, you can serve.

What are my available options?
Men, women and teens can be a part of serving in Nicaragua. We can use your expertise, whatever that may be. If you have no specific expertise, God will still have a way for you to serve.

Passport

• Passport valid for at least six months from your date of departure.
• Applications are available at U.S. Post Office.
• To apply you will need your birth certificate.

• It can take as long as 8 weeks to receive your passport, so plan ahead!
