June 29 event at the W/NP warehouse
Special thanks to everyone that was able to attend the Summer Gathering event on June 29 at the Wisconsin W/NP Warehouse! A great turnout, with over 80 people attending! It was a beautiful day to mingle with friends, both old and new. For some it was their first time to see what goes on in the warehouse and how even the smallest donated item can make a huge impact for the programs in Nicaragua. 


We are so grateful to Dave Marie and his family assistants, for sharing his famous and very delicious Caribbean chicken, potato salad, fruit and all those who brought a variety of items that made an exceptional and very special meal.  The corn huskers  and grillers (Adrian, Mike, Keith, Marcy and Sara) were also a very important part of the day and much appreciated.  Lastly, a very special thanks to Milo's Thrivent Action Team that helped to make this event possible.
 
 










There is talk of making this an annual event, so if you missed it this year, we'll look forward to the 2020 June Warehouse Gathering.  


Mother's Day theme for the May Learning Center gathering 

Mother's Day is a BIG DEAL in Nicaragua, and rightly so.  Participation of 77 people (72 adults and 5 children) at the monthly gathering, representing 36 Learning Centers!  The last Saturday of each month, Learning Center meetings, including a class or craft instruction, are held for all LC leaders, coordinators, students and anyone interested to learn more about W/NP, all are welcome.  Next meeting is July 27 at the W/NP office in Managua.

Celebration of Children's Day with the library Cooking Class.

The organization of this event was very emotional for everyone. We did it with respect, affection and loyalty, remembering Dr. Martin.  Even with the sadness that invades us, we continue as a gesture of a beautiful farewell to a Brother that we will carry in our hearts and I thank with great affection the Sir (Ricardo Gonzalez Kurszewski) who did a FB Fundraiser for us and donated the money so that the children could Celebrate with love and joy. Thank you.

In my heart there can only be gratitude to you because you are like a family to me, friends and brothers who accompany me.

The road has not been easy, but the experience I have gained is invaluable. Thanks for all this time working together. 

Miss Karla Núñez Guerrero. W/NP teacher of the class
