Nicaragua

Similar to the volcanoes it’s known for, Nicaragua is a country erupting with potential for an incredible experience in missions.

Similar to the volcanoes it’s known for, Nicaragua is a country erupting with potential for an incredible experience in missions. As the largest country in Central America, there are many different ministries to get involved with on a trip here, especially in the area of medical care and programs that provide the people of Nicaragua with everyday needs. Observe a culture that is recognized for its warmth and hospitality as you demonstrate the love of Christ.

Chasen and Katie Brokaw

Chasen and Katie joined Missionary Ventures in the fall of 2016 after moving to Managua, Nicaragua in summer 2015. They feel a strong calling to serve together long term in Nicaragua. 1 Thessalonians 2:8 is a verse that best communicates their heart for ministry. This verse says, “we loved you so much we were delighted to share with you not only the Gospel of God, but our lives at well.” They are privileged to serve together through their sports-discipleship ministry, Breaking Borders. By using the sport of Ultimate Frisbee as the introduction; Chasen, Katie, and their team of national ministry partners are able to communicate the Gospel and disciple young adults who participate in their teams and tournaments.
