Starkenburg Family Plans

While we have not been directly affected by violence, it has become more and more difficult to live in the tension.  We are constantly bombarded by news and social media, and we are holding our breath as we wait to see how this will all play out.

Our family already had plans this summer to travel to Michigan, New York and New Jersey, with a leave date of Wednesday, June 13.  We have moved our plane tickets 2 days earlier and will be flying out tomorrow morning (June 11) ​si Dios quiere!  Since we don't want to risk missing our flight, we will be spending the night in a hotel next to the airport tonight.  Please pray that we do not encounter difficulties in the next 24 hours as we finish packing and leave the country.

We will be spending time with family in Michigan and then travel to New York and New Jersey to visit family, friends and supporting churches.  We'll return to Michigan for the rest of our time this summer.  We hope to see many of you during this time in the States, and we also hope to have time to rest and relax after some very intense situations in Nicaragua.  Liam will be traveling back to Nicaragua on July 23, and the rest of the family will follow on August 2.
