International Christian Fellowship


One very important aspect of our life here in Nicaragua is our church, ICF (International Christian Fellowship).  ICF is an interdenominational English speaking church that meets every week on NCA’s campus.  The congregation is made up of missionaries, business people, embassy workers and others from different walks of life.  We have found it to be a place where we can learn and worship in our heart language, and where we can encourage one another in what God has called us to do in Nicaragua. Liam and I have been very involved at ICF really since we started attending.  Years ago we were both youth group leaders, and now I (Jessica) am in charge of our children’s programs (nursery, toddlers, preschool, 1st-5th grade) which usually serves about 40-50 kids each week.  Liam leads worship once a month, putting his amazing piano skills to great use.  Although we did not originally come to Nicaragua planning to do all of these things, they have become a large part of our lives and ministry here, and we’re so grateful that God has given us this family of believers when we are far from our own family and friends in the United States.
