New Teachers

Every spring, we ask for prayer as Liam seeks to fill the open teaching positions for the fall, and every year we are amazed to see God's provision as He brings so many unique and talented individuals - many times with their families in tow - to Nicaragua and NCA.

This year was no exception, and I (Jessica) have especially enjoyed getting to know some of the wives and children of new faculty at NCA.  Many have sold everything they had in the United States to come to a country that they have never even visited.  Suddenly they are speaking a new language, setting up house, buying a car, learning where to shop for groceries, and getting their kids settled in a new school, all the while missing home, family, and friends.   Please continue to pray for these new families, both the teachers, their spouses, and their children, in the coming months.  It can take weeks, months, and even years to really feel "home".
