This Spring Break (March 25 - April 1, 2012), a group of 16 students and 2 faculty sponsors from La Sierra University in Riverside, CA, went to La Trinidad, Nicaragua to help an orphanage run by REACH International  through STORM (Short Term Outreach Missions). We stayed at Hogar Reach, helped start the building of a wall around their school's property, and made some new friends (pictured above)!

We wanted to update this blog while we were there, but didn't have enough time or internet access, so we will be updating back entries now from various students who went on the trip. This will happen at different times, so if some pieces of the story are missing, or there are lots of different perspectives, you know what's going on! Thanks to everyone who went on the trip, helped support someone to go on the trip (whether financially, emotionally, or through prayer), and our new family in Nicaragua.
