Celebrating Progress: Mugaa Classroom Block Construction

This month, we celebrated an incredible milestone at Mugaa Primary School—the completion of a brand-new 3-classroom block equipped with 120 lockers. This achievement is a testament to the power of community partnership and shared vision.

A Community Effort

The Mugaa Primary School community played an essential role in bringing this project to life. Parents actively participated, contributing 20% of the cost of lockers, gathering stones for the foundation, and leveling the hilly classroom site by hand. Their dedication and hard work are inspiring examples of what can be accomplished when a community comes together for the benefit of its children.

Building a Strong Foundation for Education

This 3-classroom block is the second one we’ve constructed in partnership with the community. The first block, completed last October, marked the beginning of a transformative journey for Mugaa Primary School.

The recent completion was commemorated during a small, intimate gathering led by the community’s Church Leaders Fellowship (CLF). While students focused on end-of-year exams, community leaders and parent representatives joined the celebration, highlighting the importance of education in the region.

Expanding Opportunities

The need for additional classrooms became urgent when the school was awarded ‘Comprehensive School’ status by the Ministry of Education, allowing it to host junior high grades 7 to 9. However, without enough classrooms, grade 9 students faced an uncertain future.

With the completion of these new classrooms, Mugaa Primary School is now prepared to host grade 9 in the coming school year! This expansion ensures that students have the space and resources they need to thrive academically, paving the way for them to achieve their dreams and unlock their full potential.

Looking Ahead

The Mugaa Primary School story is a powerful reminder of the impact of partnership and perseverance. This new classroom block is more than just a building—it’s a symbol of hope, opportunity, and the boundless possibilities that come with access to quality education.

We are grateful to the Mugaa community, Church Leaders Fellowship, and everyone who contributed to this incredible project. Please continue to keep these students in your prayers!

When Faith Becomes Action: The Story of Los Jazmines

July 14, 2025

Two years ago, in a small community in Guatemala, a group of women and two gentlemen took a bold step of faith. They didn’t have a business plan or financial background. What they had was a shared desire—for something different, something better. They wanted to grow. They wanted to believe. And most of all, they wanted to act on their faith.

That’s how Los Jazmines was born.

At first, it was a simple savings group, supported by 410 Bridge. A place where members could learn to manage money and build a safety net. But it didn’t stay simple for long. It quickly transformed into something much deeper—a place of prayer, discipleship, encouragement, and miracles.

Bringing Urgent Relief to Nicaragua’s Flooded Communities

July 11, 2025

In the remote villages along the rivers of Nicaragua, life is changing—and not for the better.

Recent floods have devastated entire communities, displacing families, destroying food supplies, and washing away crops that were meant to sustain them for months to come. The villages of Makantaka, Makantakita, Company Crick, Dakban, Guadalupe, Kansas City, Betania, Angloamerica, and La Esperanza have been hit especially hard. Over 80 families in each village are now facing an uncertain future.

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen flooding in this region—but those on the ground are calling this situation uniquely devastating.

Homes are unlivable. Crops are gone. Hunger is growing.

The Story of Edy Josué Ruiz

July 10, 2025

When Edy Josué Ruiz arrived at the rehabilitation center in 2018, his life was marked by loneliness and the pain of his father’s absence. He didn’t speak, didn’t play, and found refuge in silence. But God had a plan for him.

The rehabilitation center provided the support he needed through speech therapy, motor skills development, and psychological counseling. However, it was the love and faith he encountered there that truly transformed his heart. Thanks to the therapists and their dedication, Edy began to open up—he learned to speak, to smile, and most importantly, to find peace through his faith in Jesus.

Community leaders also played a key role in Edy and his mother’s journey. Through their constant support, prayers, and encouragement, they offered spiritual and emotional strength. The community became a fundamental pillar in his transformation.
