Cascade Christian High School's team of students and adults who went to serve in Managua, Nicaragua, last March shared about their trip at today's middle school chapel.

I am writing this as I lay on the floor of Rosemaria's house about to pass out from being so tired. All of us are fried from a day at of play in the sun and on the beach at Montelemar resort. After a long week of service we were fortunate enough to be able [...]
Today was a day that was filled with laughter and joy, yet also tinged with sadness because it was our last day with the kids. We started off with devotions at 5:30 where we focused on Psalms 8:3-5. We learned about being humble in everything, being able to do the dirty work, and having a [...]

Our second day at El Padul was full of beauty and joy. As a team, we have been focusing on how this trip is not about us and our wants, but serving those around us. This mindset is important for our team to remember, but at the same time, I feel that I have received [...]

Today started very early. We met at the Medford Airport at 4am. Everyone made it through security without getting checked except Cristian and I! They took all of my food out of my bag, and some out of Cristian's too. We managed to all make the flight on-time, and had a peaceful flight to Denver. [...]
We have made it safe to the Denver airport. We are now waiting for our next flight to Huston. Posted by: Tanner Northrop
