Memories: I remember being scared to death in Managua
one time when a military jeep drove past and then started shooting as it
reached a nearby crowd of people that were rioting. Luckily, they were only shooting into the air. We had to dust ourselves off after hitting
the dirt. More importantly I remember the changes in the lives of the people we
taught and the tears of joy as they were baptized!
