Nicaraguan Construction Mission Trip Team II Day One

On Saturday, January 22nd, 2011, the second construction team traveling to Los Cedros, Nicaragua, met at 6:00 am at Wesley United Methodist Church, in Bloomington, Illinois.

The team members are from five churches: Wesley United Methodist Church in Bloomington, Calvary United Methodist Church in Bloomington, Saint Mary's Catholic Church in Bloomington, the First United Methodist Church of Carrier Mills, and the Church of the Nazarene in Pittsfield.

The team consists of Ron Schaad (team leader), Bruce Bohall, Cleve Curry, Stan Geison, Stan Irvin, Rick Jahnke, Margaret Naylor, Adam Nichols, Jeff Parks, Gary Pritts, Bill Tolone, and Joe Triplett.

The team drove to Chicago O'Hare airport, where it flew to Houston, Texas.  From Houston the team flew to Managua, Nicaragua, arriving around 9:10 pm central standard time.  At the Managua airport the team was picked up by one of the Missionaries from Los Cedros, and driven by workers from the orphanage a distance of about forty minutes to the orphanage at Los Cedros.

After a long day of travel, the team bedded down and slept preparing for the week ahead.
