Safe Shelter by a Landfill

 

Around the world, some of the poorest people live near or on garbage dumps. New Life Nicaragua decided to do something about it.

 

“In 2009, NLN began a new ministry in Cristo Rey, a barrio set near a landfill and engulfed in extreme poverty. Many people lacked the basic needs of shelter, water, and electricity. We built the first home there in 2010, and have since constructed over 300 homes.”

Lord God, our hearts go out to the dear people who dwell in such desperate places. Raise up more organizations like NLN. Give them the vision and resources to provide safe spaces for families, in Jesus’ name.
