Reflections on the Days Gone By

Thanks be to God for each of you and for your hearts to pray and support us on the trip.  As with all things out of His hands, the trip was exceeding, abundantly beyond all we could ask or think!  Each time we had an over the top, amazing, only could be thought of and orchestrated by the Creator of the Universe, experience...Bob would say , "If we did nothing else the rest of the trip, it would have been worth it."  

We hope to update the blog again this week to recount the few days that we haven't yet described.  Also, we hope to get some of the pictures (we took over 1000) online somehow, either through Facebook or on the blog.  In the meantime, we thought we would share a few reflections on the week gone by.  In no special order, just things worth sharing.

• We loved the corporate prayer of Christian brothers and sisters in Nicaragua.  Always on their knees, usually out loud, and often simultaneously. 
• We loved how our Christian brothers and sisters in Nicaragua greet each other.  Always by the name hermano  (brother) or hermana (sister) and always with La Paz de Cristo (the peace of Christ).  Any believer they encounter is immediately introduced as a brother or sister in Christ. 
• Anna Katherine's favorite time of the trip was our morning of teaching the children of Las Esquinas.  Pastor Aburto's lovely young wife Rosa collected one or two at a time a group ragamuffin children and we took them to the church for a morning of teaching, prayer and play. Anna Katherine got to teach how to make "God's eyes" and also painted faces.  Remember, none of these children speak English and she speaks little Spanish.  But, God gave her a heart to serve.  Who needs words?
• Elizabeth's favorite times were our trip to the beach with a group from Pastor Aburto's family and a going away party the last night we were there.  We are talking about interaction with people who could not speak a word of English with a little girl who could barely speak a word of Spanish.  But, God made her relational.  Who needs words?
• We loved seeing the transforming work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of people in a totally different place and culture and language.  Take Noe (Noah in Spanish) for example.  He is bright eyed, always smiling,  well dressed, well-pressed , friendly fellow, always the first one at the church and the last one to leave. If there was a job to be done, he did it.  If there was a person to be greeted, he greeted them.  He is a servant through and through.  We later learned Noe is a new Christian, a recovering alcoholic and his home is made of plastic and corrugated tin.  
• We saw the power and reality of multi-generational faithfulness.  Pastor Aburto, Sr. and his wife have 9 children.  Two of the sons are pastors (who also have "day jobs") and another son works two jobs, one at his local church.  The entire Aburto family serves and attends three different (related) churches in the area.  They are like an army deployed to serve God's kingdom in their community.   The Aburto's newest grandbaby is named Shalom Janice (Janice means God is gracious).  They are already praying about God's plan for her life. 
• We saw a people who's life was the church.  They were always there, always together.  One of the men's Bible Studys was on Friday night.  
• We brought a PILE of our favorite books that have been translated into Spanish.  John Piper, Spurgeon, R. C. Sproul, James Dobson, Nancy Leigh DeMoss, Elizabeth George.  The biggest hit, by far, was Pilgrim's Progress.
• The simplicity of their church.  Hope you will see the pictures. And people think Christ Church is simple!
• The Christian church in Nicaragua celebrates as a holiday the day the Bible was translated into their language.  It was translated in 1569, 42 years before the King James Version. 
• No matter the culture, no matter the language, no matter the surroundings, there is just nothing like being with God's people!!! 

There is much more to tell, but we'll hope to have the chance to do that with each of you in person.  Thanks be to God for each of you and the role you played in His work on this trip. 

Nicaragua Travelogue - Granada, Nicaragua

While Rodolfo works this week, we have decided on a special treat for Rosa (Pastor Aburto's wife), Shalom, their daughter, and Elisabeth, Rodolfo's 18 year old sister.  We are going to Granada!   Granada is a gorgous, Spanish Colonial town, dating to the time of Coronado, the Spanish explorer, located about an hour from San Marcos.  Our taxi driver will charge us $20 to get there. 

We stop by Masatepe to pick Rosa up at her school at 1 and we are in Granada at our hotel by 2.  After a little bit of typical Nicaraguan confusion about which rooms we were to have (we wanted to all be together) we were settled in a lovely adjoining room, with a balcony looking out towards Volcano Mombacho.  It's much hotter in Granada.  Bob still isn't feeling 100% so while he rests, all of the girls head to the pool.  The pool is lovely, tucked in the back of the hotel.  If you've ever been to the hotel in Memphis, Tennessee where they have ducks in the fountain, you would really like this place.  They have ducks in the pool! 

After our swim it is time for a little exploring around Granada.  Grand streets lined with colonial mansions and large walkways lead to a gorgous park, complete with a gleaming colonial cathedral.   We eat dinner at the Hotel Alambra, the classic old hotel located right on the square.  You just have to do it!  The most expensive entree on the menu is about $12 US but the service is that of a true luxury hotel.  And...they have a mariachi band.  They asked Bob if he would like 3 songs for $10.  He said, no, how about 1 song for $5.  He drives a hard bargain!!  Por que no?

We enjoyed our dinner with Rosa and Elizabeth, laughing a lot and also recalling the Lord's work at the Crusade.  They speak no English and we speak little Spanish, but all of us are anxious to understand each other and the Lord manages to make it work.

There was lots of music and lots of life in the square, so after dinner we walk around a bit.  There is a poetry festival going on (Niccaraguans are famous for their love of poetry).   There is even a performance of traditional Nicaraguan folk dancing.  We're tired though, so after a little bit of walking we head back to our hotel and get some sleep.  Look for lots of pictures of our time in Granada on Facebook.

A morning in Las Esquinas

Monday morning was back to business as usual in Nicaragua.   By 6 am, Rosa (Pastor Aburto's wife) was on the bus headed to the elementary school where she teaches in Masatepe, the next town over.  Pastor Aburto was up and at 'em and headed to his job as an IT specialist at Ave Maria College.  In classic Nicaraguan hospitality style, before we were really even up, Pastor Aburto's sisters were coming in to fix breakfast for us.  (Did we tell you that we are living in the Aburto's house?  They have moved almost everything out of their master bedroom and daughter's room so that we can stay there. They are staying next door at Pastor Aburto's parent's house.  We learned the last time that we came that no amount of persuading will keep them from hosting us this way.)

A desayuno tipica (typical breakfast) is gallo pinto (red beans and rice) and eggs and lots of fruit.  Absolutely delicious.  Though they wouldn't let us cook I did manage to clean up and wash the dishes really quickly before they came back.  There is no hot water...just a little scrubbie thing and a solid sort of dishwashing substance.  

After breakfast and a little family worship Pastor Aburto's youngest brother, Gabriel, took us on the bus into San Marcos, for a scoop of ice cream, a trip  to the bank and trip to the internet cafe.  When I get a chance, I am going to ask Rodolfo (Pastor Aburto) to translate a conversation with his mother. I want to ask her how she raised children who have such servants' hearts.  Today is Gabriel's last day of summer, and what is he doing?  Touring a group of gringos around his home town for some errands.  This is a 13 year old that doesn't know the meaning of the word teenager.  A real Colossians 3:23 man! 

Sunday's Crusade

The Crusade Finale was powerful.  There were at least 500 people packed onto this tiny dirt road.   I can't even think of a South Carolina equivalent.  More on this shortly!  Check Facebook for pictures. 

Sunday Worship at Iglesia Las Esquinas

Post by Bob)

Reflections on Sunday worship:

A dirt road no wider than a car.
Modest humble cinder block houses, most with dirt floors.
Bustling activity-dogs barking, roosters crowing, children laughing and running, ladies cooking.
The church (iglesia) is spartan--cement stage, cement floor, metal roof, plastic chairs to sit in.
Men on one side of church, women on other side.
The sound system set up--it works!
Pastor Aburto opens in prayer and singing.
He prays that the sound system will be used abundantly to spread God's Word.
If not, it will be noisy gong or clanging cymbal.
Pastor Aburto reads Matthew 7:7-20.
Concepts to focus on:
Seek the Lord, The Lord is generous,
The way is narrow, Avoid the wide path,
Be fruit inspectors, We are known by our fruit.
Pastor William called up to preach.
(Pastor William prays for Christ Church and the Daleys as Ambassadors of Christ Church and Jesus Christ)
Sermon text:  Mark 2:1-12 (Jesus heals the Paralytic)
The Paralytic needed the help of four friends to carrying him to Jesus.
He needed a team to carry him.
His friends had to overcome a number of obstacles.
His friends had to be persistant.
His friends had to be precise (in lowering him through the roof).
His friends had to love him more than they cared about what people thought.
His friends had to have faith that Jesus could "heal."
When Jesus saw the faith of the four friends, He forgave the Paralytic's sins.
The real illness we need to healed of is sin.
The scribes were angry (Jesus was a threat to them!)
Jesus tells them that He had authority to forgive sins!
Only then does Jesus tell the Paralytic to rise.

Service closes in prayer and song.

Everyone exchanges the Peace of Christ with hand shakes and hugs.

Time to go back for a big meal and to rest.

The last night of the Crusade will be tonight.

God's Word, a Sound System and a Crusade - Part V (Sunday morning)

We awoke this morning to a breezy, sunny Sunday morning.  We had slept like babies!  God has already blessed us "far more abundantly than all that we can ask or think" (Ephesians 3:20)  with the opportunity to see His work in another culture, in another language.  One can't help but be reminded that the church here on earth is one in Christ even though there are a multitude of local congregations and denominations spread across the entire globe.

A great joy for Bob Sunday morning before church was having the opportunity to sit with 14 year old Gabriel and read a sermon in Spanish by John Piper on Romans 3:19-26--Jesus is Precious Because He Removes Our Guilt ("Jesús es Precioso Porque Elimina Nuestra Culpa").  What can be more precious than soaking in these truths:

First, all human beings are personally accountable to God for their sin (v. 19).
Second, the resulting guilt of man and righteous indignation of God can't be made right by works of the law (v. 20).
Third, God, on his own initiative, set about to accomplish our justification by grace and offer it as a free gift (vv. 21–24).
Fourth, the way he did this was by sending his Son, Jesus, to redeem us by his death and to demonstrate the righteousness of God (vv. 24–26).
Finally, this gift of justification, the removal of our guilt and God's wrath, comes only to those who trust in Jesus (vv. 22, 25–26).

After a simple breakfast (of rice and beans and fruit) and a quiet time, we made our way to Iglesia Las Esquinas for Sunday Moning services. To be continued . . .

God's Word, a Sound System and a Crusade - Part IV (Sat. afternoon/evening)

(Post by Bob)
God had a suprise for Bob when he went early to help set up for the Crusade on Saturday afternoon!  Providentialy, Bob took a Spanish/English Bible with him.  When he arrived with Pastor Aburto, it became clear that there were very little for Bob to do to help set up.  There were at least a dozen men busily putting out chairs, carrying out speakers, setting up the stage and watering the street to keep the dust down.  After a dozen embraces from "mi hermanos en Cristo" (my friends in Christ) and with everything going smoothly, Pastor Aburto suggested Bob sit down in the front chairs by the stage.  Bob sat down and began to read his Bible.  In about 30 seconds, a little girl sat down.  Bob asked her what her name was.  Within another minute a dozen (!) children from the neighborhood were gathered around.  They asked where he was from and whether he had any children or a wife.  They all sat down and giggled and laughed when Bob tried to read the Bible in spanish.  After Bob had read John 14:6 and John 3:16, the children started asking to read the Bible themselves.  Before he knew it, Bob had a bunch of "helpers" reading the story of Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10) and the parable of the Persistent Widow and the Unrighteous Judge (Luke 18:1-8).  At about that time, Jana, AK and Elizabeth arrived to sing the song about Zaccheaus who was a "wee little man."  They were a big hit!  A number of these children stayed near the Daleys all night long!  Pastor Aburto told me that most of these children don't go to church.  They just run around the neighborhood.  I rest in the comfort, as Pastor William procliamed repeatedly at the crusade, that "God's Word never returns void."

The Crusade was another night filled with singing, preaching and a shorter altar call.  Interrestingly, a number of the songs were American praise and worship songs that had been translated into Spanish.  One of them was "Open the eyes of my heart, Lord."  More about this song later!

For good reason, we all went straight to bed when we got back to the Aburto's house.  Sunday was to be filled with worship in the morning, a big Sunday lunch and then the last day of the Crusade! 

God's Word, a Sound System and a Crusade - Part III (Saturday)

(A post from Bob). 
On Saturday morning, we went to the market in Jinotepe with Rosa and Shalom (Pastor Aburto's wife and 1 year old daughter).  We took a bus (an old recycled "Blue Bird" bus made in High Point, North Carolina) jam-packed with folks.  You get used to not having a lot of "personal space" in Nicaragua.  I realized Saturday how often there are scripture references and statements giving God glory all over Nicaragua. You see these on the t-shirts people wear (Jesus is fiel--Jesus is faithful), on the buses people ride (Si DIOS conmigo, qien contra mi?--If God is with me, who can be against me), on the cars people drive (Gracia a ti Senor--Thanks be to God), on the walls where people wait for rides, many places.  The market is filled with sights and sounds that are both foreign and familiar.  You can buy almost anything at the market, but we were there to buy fruit--lots of fruit!  Cantelope, watermelons, mangoes, pineapples, oranges, and plantanes.  All us had bags of fruit to carry back home!  Fruit is so plentiful and inexpensive (a huge watermelon costs less than $1) that they make juice out of almost everything, including cantelope (which is a taste sensation).  This superabundance of fruit remnded me of Psalm 1:3:  "[The man who delights in the law of the Lord] is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither."  Nicaraguans enjoy the blessing of fruit all year becaue of the climate and conditions that are nearly perfect for growth.  What if we all thought about how this applies to our own "fruit producing" (Galatians 5:22-23)?  The better the conditions and climate the better the fruit!

When we got back from the market, it was time to unpack the sound system.  Delivering the sound system was what first got us thinking about this trip.  You see, our church agreed to purchase the sound system for the church at Las Esquinas to meet a need of theirs.  Though their church is small, the acoustics are terrible and the noise around the church, even on Sunday, is a huge distraction.  Also, Pastor Aburto has SUCH a heart to reach the lost and he has many ideas about how to use the sound system for outreach, pastor training, leader training and more.  If you've ready Created to Be Help Meet then you know about the different types of men.  Pastor Aburto is the classic "Mr. Visionary."   The price of getting the soud system to Nicaragua was prohibitive and the chances of it ever making it to Las Esquinas were slim.  Most likely someone along  the way would decide they wanted to keep it for themselves.  We take so much for granted in the US. 

Unpacking the sound system was an event!  We got out the three large suitcases that contained the sound board adn two speakers.  The "unpacking team" was Pastor Aburto, Gabriel (his 14 year old brother), Elizabeth Daley, and me (Bob).  There were also several folks who looked on!  Elizbeth and I were in charge of unwrapping.  We were careful to save as much of the bubble wrap as possible.  Recycling is a necessity!  Things get reused several times in Nicaragua.  Pastor Aburton and Gabriel were in charge of setting up the system to make sure it worked.  Within 15 mnutes the system was unpacked and ready to be tested.  Through God's grace, it worked the moment we plugged it in!  I prayed right then that this sound system would be a conduit for God's Word to be proclaimed to many!  Pastor Aburto could not stop smiling.  He said he could not wait to use the sound system at Iglesia Las Esquinas the next day!  I thought about the abundant generosity of God's grace that He would allow the Daleys to be part of delivering His sound system to His people in Nicaragua. 

God's Word, a Sound System and a Crusade - Part II (still Friday)

(A post from Jana). Friday night's crusade was an experience like none other. We traveled to the crusade by "mini moto," a little three wheeled vehicle powered by a motor similar to a lawn mower. We left the main road and traveled by dirt road through Las Esquinas (The Corners) until the dirt road ended at a large platform and hundreds of red plastic lawn chairs. A large banner above the platform read: "Si alguno tienes sed, venga a mi y beba. Juan 7:37" (If anyone has thirst, let him come to me and drink.) How I wish I could post a picture of this sight - maybe later. By the road was the house of an hermano in the church. We were given a very warm welcome!! Everyone greated us with "La Paz de Cristo," (which is The Peace of Christ). Ladies from the church were in the back of the house preparing tortillas, tacos and enchiladas. Standing around talking to them was true koinonia, but in Spanish. To quote AK, the 2 1/2 hour Crusade was 60% singing 30% preaching and 10% altar call. The music was spirited, and everyone knew the words, the preaching was on Romans 8 and surely brought the gospel to these people. Who knows what seeds were planted? We are just praying that after the crusade is over we'll need to buy more chairs for the church!

God's Word, a Sound System and a Crusade - Part I

We have had a remarkable first 48 hours in Nicaragua.  The Lord has gone before us in every way!!  After a truly smooth flight Friday morning, we landed in Managua and God moved us and our 14 bags of luggage through Immigration and Customs in (what has to be a record!) 25 minutes,

Pastor Aburto, Sr. (Pastor Aburto's father) and the youngest son, Gabrielle, picked us up in a pick up truck and drove us to their house in San Marcos.  Gabriel traveled the entire way from the airport to their house on top of our suitcases in the back of the pickup.  Do you know of a 13 year old in America who would do that without complaining?  Best I can tell, children here in Nicaragua aren't allowed to complain. 

We climbed up though the glorious mountains of Western Nicaragu past pineapple farms and other fincas to the cool area known as San Marcos.  I think St. Mark would have liked it here.

As we rested from our trip and readied ourselves for the Crusade, we had the privilege of meeting the visiting pastor who would preach much of the Crusade.  We had a meaningful, though difficult conversation, in two languages about Romans 8:1, the passage on which he would preach that night.  Isn't God wonderful to have the preaching on one of our favorite chapters in the entire Bible.

More later...Pastor Aburto's entire extended family shares this cellular modem and one of the younger boys has been waiting.   

We are so sorry that we aren't abl to post pictures. We'll keep trying  Perhaps when we get to Granada.

Arrived in Nicaragua!

We have arrived safely and are enjoying our time greatly! We gotten to spend a lot of time with Rosa, Rodulfo and their little girl, Shalom. The reason we haven't updated yet is because we haven't had internet until now. We can't put pictures on either because we don't have a very good connection. That's all for now, thanks!

ak loves riding airplanes. can u tell?

Eddie rocks!

Our morning journey to the airport couldn't have been smoother. The Lord has used so many people to help us: Yevette at the front desk, merv the van driver who loaded all 8 of our 50 pound bags and Eddie who checked them all in with colassians 3:23 spirit. The lady at security had a huge smile for us Berry at t s a even let me go through with my toothpaste that was more than 3 ounces. Now we are drinking our last Starbucks listening to the ladies behind the counter laughing and enjoying their job. Its been a morning of joy.

Arrived in Atlanta

We arrived safely in our hotel and I am writing this in our Comfort Suites hotel room (which by the way is awesome :) in Atlanta.  I think we are already learning to be patient because we made a couple of extra turns before we arrived at the hotel.  My dad says that this caused him to remember that "Love is patient . . ."  It is hard to believe that we will be in Nicaragua at the crusade in less than 24 hours!

We are all very excited and hope to be blogging fairly often from my mom's phone.

Thanks, gotta go play a family card game! :D

But, I'll end with a verse that my dad showed me:

Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy,brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.  1 Peter 3:8

God's Perfect Timing

On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink.  John 7:37 

(Guiding Scripture for Las Esquinas Crusade)

(Hey, Jana here, helping Anna Katherine out with this post) In our last post we promised to finish our story of the trip and how it came about.  Well, once we decided that we needed to hand deliver the equipment, we started to look at the calendar to see when we might be able to fit a trip to Nicaragua in our schedule.  Our break from school was the week of February 14 so we decided our trip should be around then.  We finally determined that a trip beginning around Feb 10 or 11 would be perfect for us.  To our great surprise, though not God's, when we called Pastor Aburto to see whether those dates would work for him, we learned that this was the very day of the start of their church's first Community Crusade.  So, because of God's perfect timing, we will be participating in the church's first crusade.  This is an opportunity many Americans never have to see God working in a different culture and in a setting that is foreign.  While much will see strange to us, what will not be strange is God's Word being preached in its glorious fullness to a people hungry for hope.

The people of Las Esquinas have been meeting each day for the last several weeks at 4:30 am to pray for revival and for a fresh falling of the Holy Spirit on the people of their community.  They will be praying again tomorrow.  This will be 5:30 am Eastern Time.  Perhaps you'd like to join them!


For His glory,

Jana

The Story behind our trip

“For this is what the Lord has commanded us: ‘I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’” 

Acts 13:47

 

Many of friends have asked for details of our trip.  Below are a few details from a support letter that we sent.

In early February we will travel with our parents to spend ten days in the country of Nicaragua in Central America.  We’ll be serving in a small community called Las Esquinas, about an hour from Managua.  This is our Mom’s third trip to Nicaragua and our family’s second trip. 

Our time in Nicaragua will be jam-packed.  On the day we arrive we’ll be helping our friends at Iglesia de Las Esquinas with a 3-day Community Crusade.  Our Spanish might not be good enough to share the gospel ourselves, but we do hope to share the love of Christ during the crusade. 

After the crusade, we will continue to work with our friends at Las Esquinas.  Mom and Dad will be teaching a Bible Study on the topic of marriage during the week and we will be working with the children of the church.  

Our relationship with the people of Las Esquinas begain in 2005. Mom went on a mission trip to Nicaragua with Shandon Presbyterian Church.  While there, Mr. Rodolfo Aburto was her translator.  Mom and Mr. Aburto stayed in touch, and in 2008 when Mr. Aburto was to be wed, our family traveled to Nicaragua for the wedding.  When we told Mr. Aburto that we wanted to come to the wedding, he asked if we would like to be flower girls. We said yes.

After our visit to Nicaragua for the wedding, our church began sending Mr. Aburto CDs of the weekly sermons at our church, Christ Church of the Carolinas, and also a weekly devotional from our pastor.   Then, about a year ago, Mr. Aburto and his father felt led by the Lord to start a new church in Nicaragua, Iglesia Las Esquinas.  Pastor Aburto is a godly man with a heart to teach people about God and His word and the Lord has greatly blessed the church. 

Our family has helped out a little bit financially with the building of the church, but when the church needed a sound system and other electronics, we asked our church if they would be willing to support the Lord's work in Nicaragua by purchasing the equipment.  They said yes!!

Then the question was, "How do we get this equipment down there?" My mom suggested we take the things ourselves, and so we are!!  It was out of this need to get this equipment down there that our trip has grown to what it is today!  

Tomorrow, the story of how we timed our trip to get there in time to participate in the Crusade. I can't tell you the whole story, but I can tell you that God is at work.

Prayer Requests

Thank you dear friends for your prayers for our trip to Nicaragua. Many of our prayers have already been answered, before we could even ask them. Thank you, Lord Jesus! We covet your continued prayers for our trip. For our family, please pray:

* That we would use our time wisely in the upcoming days and that the Lord would show us HOW best to use our time as we prepare so that we get everything done and don't forget anything;

* That the enemy would not create confusion or chaos in our household in the days leading up to our trip;

* That we would continue to stay connected to the Vine during these busy days and that we would continue to abide in Him.

* That each of our hearts would be ready to receive what the Lord has to teach us on the trip.

* That we would go with servants' hearts, seeking to serve and guarding against any pride with regards to what we bring or what we will do but seeking only to serve as Christ would serve. That we would serve as Galatians 5 and Philippians 2 servants. These are our family focus scriptures for the trip.

* That each of the Daleys would be transformed during this time. We do not want to be the same when we return as we are today. In particular, that He would do mighty work in the lives of our girls.

* That God would bless both Bob and Jana as they prepare to teach God's word to the people of Las Esquinas giving them wisdom as to what to say and what to teach.

* That the Lord would bless this time of visioning for what His continued work in Nicaragua might be for the people of Christ Church.  If it is His will for us to pursue a group mission trip for others from Christ Church, that He would make the way clear.

For our friends in Nicaragua at the Iglesia Las Esquinas who are preparing for their Community Crusade, please pray:

* That there would be a hunger and a thirst for God's Word among the people;

* That the teaching of the pastors would be filled with Truth;

* That God would provide for all of the material and financial needs of the Crusade;

* That hearts would be open to hear God's truth;

* That souls would be saved through the preaching and teaching of God's word and the movement of the Holy Spirit.
