Miriam Lopez – Communications Coordinator, Nicaragua
About Miriam:
We first met Miriam when she served as a translator for a WEGO trip to Nicaragua several years ago. Our WEGO staff and missionaries knew we needed to find a place for her within our ministries where she has now served in several areas since. From Diriamba, she is a gifted communicator who loves to serve Jesus in the same area where she was born and raised. A big part of her job is helping us put together this monthly guide. She spends a lot of time interviewing and getting to know the churches in our community, our staff, and the kids we get to serve. But most importantly, Miriam is about to deliver her first baby any day now so we want to make sure we spend some time praying for her!
How You Can Pray:
1) Pray for the smooth and safe delivery of her daughter Ariana.
2) Pray for her quick physical recovery from labor
3) Join us in praying for Miriam and her husband Hugo as they adjust to their new life as parents.
