In other house-renting news, we are also leaving the wonderful Casa Blanca behind in December.
That's right, all our memories will have to carry over to the new property. For those of you who don't know what I'm referring to, it just means you haven't been to Nica yet. So, come on.
I am starting a discipleship group with a Nicaraguan friend of mine. I have been praying for a while now for God to provide someone for me to spend some one on one time with spiritually mentoring just like someone did for me in very pivotal years of my life. The problem for so long was my lacking materials in Spanish. Now that I have all of this, we are going to start meeting soon. Please pray for God to speak clearly to me and to the person I'll be meeting with. I honestly have no idea what I'm doing, but I know that I'm supposed to do it. There are many factors with the culture and language that I will have to address as we go. I have a feeling my Americanized method of mentoring and discipleship might get completely turned on it's head before this whole thing is over. I'm OK with that, but I lack clarity and patience to approach this thing with a gentle hand. Pray for THAT specifically for me.
My hope is that from one small group, he will catch a vision to turn around and start mentoring and starting discipleship groups with his peers. He can reach his and countrymen better than I can. That is the big dream. Pray for God to continue to unravel this dream he has put in my heart. This discipleship group is the first step.
