I have resigned Forward Edge, and will no longer facilitate their teams. Instead, Helen and I will work together as a team ... to help impoverished communities become self-sustaining. Though we have many ideas, the first will be to help the residents of La Ceiba, (also known as Leon to some) build a chicken coop and raise chickens. This will provide eggs, meat and a little extra of each to sell to their neighbors and keep the chicken feed coming and repairs on the coop. We are starting this project very soon. Then we'll move to vegetable growing, so their diet can be more well rounded than it is currently. And it is our hopes that one day, they themselves will take this concept to other communities and help them become self-sufficient also.
We don't know all the details now, but - we're walking forward and seeking advice from several well established ministries here in Nicaragua.
Forward Edge's vision in Nicaragua is centered around the Villa and short term mission, so, we will soon process donations elsewhere. We'll share that information with you soon.
We will keep you posted with more details in a week or two after we settle down, and process all that is and will be changing in our lives. We appreciate your care, concern and support. Truly.
