Exciting times at JIMS Kilkeel!
It’s been a busy weekend at JIMS Kilkeel with ‘Souled Out in The Country’ finishing up on Sunday afternoon after 3 fantastic days of worship, teaching, Bible readings and seminars. JIMS is reaching a new generation of local young people and seeing the older youth move into leadership.
In addition, this summer, JIMS has joined with Latin Link to take a team to Nicaragua and they left early on Monday 5 August– exciting times!
The team consists of 7 young people aged 14–17 with 3 leaders and a short–term partner already in the country who is acting as an interpreter.
The group is based in the city of Granada, with the intention of serving the local church in whatever way necessary. They will undertake some construction work, working with children and adults and getting involved in church services.
You can keep up to date via the team blog here.
The team values your prayers and here are some pointers to get you started:
Team unity – as we learn to live and work together and include Louise (translator) in our team
Language barrier
Relationships with Lucas and Barbra (Latin Link coordinators on the ground, full time missionaries)
Relationships with the Mennonite church – pastor and family, host homes, children, and youth
Safety and health
Peace for parents / family / friends in Kilkeel
Open hearts of team members to what God is going to do in and through each of us.
