At least 170 to 200 people come once a week to
our mission for
boxes of assorted clothes, shoes, linens, etc. People line up
outside the gates of the compound, waiting to receive their boxes of goods.
Everyone (with a few exceptions) give a monetary payment for what is given -
(not much $2 to $3 for 30/40 items.)
In the beginning of our sending containers, the families kept all these items
for themselves and their children. Now, they go to the mountain areas, to other
towns, market places and sell the items thus earning a living. In general, this
has helped to solve a huge social problem and has given people a sense of dignity and the "I can do this" attitude.
The Nicaragua Mission Project also drops of food to the poor at their homes in
poor towns.
Items are also given to the seminary, children's homes, schools, clinic,
hospitals, mission chapels, religious shrines, churches — things that may
include desks, altars, playground toys, furnishings — and the list goes on.
