Carlos & Aracelis Reyes

Carlos and Aracelis are Nicaraguan doctors that serve the people of rural Leon with medical missions. They spend a great deal of time serving their community at Clinica Carlitos, which is a clinic/pharmacy located just outside of the city of Leon where medical consultations are offered for less than $3. This price includes certain types of medications as well. They feel a calling to work with people using their gifts are healers, but they also use this opportunity to share the Gospel with folks while visiting the clinic. They are an amazing blessing to their community and people literally walk for hours to receive care from this couple, and their love for their people is palpable.

Most folks don’t ever get the chance to see what goes on behind the scene in the medical field, but there is a mountain of work to be done there are well, such as handling the logistics that pertain to filing documentation with Nicaragua’s Ministry of Health in every region that the CFCI Nicaragua Medical Missions Department operates in. They also handle the discernment process to decide which churches to work with when medical brigades, both national and international, are in the planning stages, which is yet another facet of the work they do with CFCI. The brigades require a lot of careful planning, procurement of equipment, personnel, medications, as well as training for those from the churches and communities that wish to volunteer in this enterprise.

Fabricio & Claudia Mendoza

Greetings from the Mendoza family! We, Fabricio and Claudia, have been
married since 2003. Our sons are Adiel Andrés, 14 years old, and José
Andrés, 9 years old.

Our Ministry began at our church in Chinandega when we were both 17 years old and at that time we were boyfriend and girlfriend. At that time, we were leading small groups, assisting the senior pastor, preaching, and active in evangelism. After we got married, we were asked to move to Managua and serve in a daughter church there. For the duration of one year, we also helped to
raise up two churches in the cities of Leon and Juigalpa.

We have been CFCI missionaries since 2006, and began serving as the
directors of the Nicaragua CFCI base in 2010. We work alongside our
fellow missionaries and help develop what we believe God’s vision for
the ministry is, which includes the following six areas: Medical
Ministry, Education Ministry, Pastoral and Leaders Training, Women’s
Ministry, Youth Ministry and Special Programs.

We are seeking the prayer support of friends and family who can commit
to be our constant prayer partners and companions for effective
service through the gospel in Nicaragua.

We also need people who are committed to be financial partners to
support us and our family as we serve in full-time ministry.
One time gifts are a great blessing, as are monthly commitments. We
thank God for you joining us in this vision.

Mario & Xochil Amador

Mario and Xochil Amador have been missionaries with Christ For the City International since 2014. They both serve together as the Base Receivers office and the “Step Up to Life” Program at our base in Nicaragua. Mario coordinates both and Xochil works along with him.

Xochil is a civil engineer with graduate studies on formulation and evaluation of projects; projects management and population development. She also has a master’s degree on water treatment from the University of Seville, Spain. She worked for the municipal government of Managua for 9 years. Mario is a business administrator who worked for 10 years at his family business.

At the Short-Term Missions office they serve as the link between the base in Nicaragua and the churches that wish to send groups to serve and to learn more about Nicaragua. They answer questions and doubts, coordinate the details and logistics associated with STMs and serve as group leaders in many cases. Mario speaks both Spanish and English and he also serves interpreting, mainly at theological trainings for churches’ pastors.

The “Step Up to Life” Program is an evangelistic method. It is a different method meant to deepen on a person’s spiritual life and their true interest on knowing God and surrender to him. Mario and Xochil will be taking this program to churches and will be training them to be able to bring souls to Christ.

Mario and Xochil also serve with other CFCI Nicaragua ministry areas when the support from missionaries is needed. They also serve at their local church as Bible teachers for new Christians. Serving God and his people is our calling.
