Why do you “champion” this ministry area?
“I truly believe in Sinapis' work of making disciples and alleviating poverty through the power of entrepreneurship. Job creation is essential to combatting poverty in emerging and frontier markets. Empowering entrepreneurs with the skills and connections to build and grow thriving businesses can transform their communities. And when that is partnered with a love for the Lord and a desire to honor Him in and through the business, eternities can change.”

“We have found Circles to be an amazing avenue to serve together as a married couple as we are able to partner in loving our neighbors intentionally with the hopes of befriending those in our community that have very different lives than ourselves. It has been such a sweet gift to be able to partner with Circles in their poverty alleviation work in our city as we get to learn about the needs of others while also offering our stable friendship to those in need.”

“We first visited Nicaragua with NRN in 2009. Since then, we have had the privilege of serving the ministry in numerous ways, but what excites us most is introducing people at Soma to our co-laborers in Nicaragua, who have been faithfully serving for decades. We have seen firsthand the transformative impact that student sponsorship can have, not only for individual students but also for their families across generations. We are eager for the people of Soma to experience the shared faith and mutual growth that relationships like the one between our church and Iglesia Betsaida sustain, cultivate, and nurture.”
