Nicaragua Missions Project
ONE BY ONE MISSIONS/HOUSE OF HOPE in Managua, Nicaragua
www.onebyonenicaragua.com
We spent the last five days in Managua, Nicaragua photographing the extreme poverty and people in desperate need for hope. We attempted to capture this in stills, but one cannot truly see the needs of these people until emersed in their culture. ONE BY ONE MISSIONS & HOUSE OF HOPE IS ABOUT PROVIDING HOPE. THE HOPE OF ETERNITY, THE HOPE OF AN EDUCATION, THE HOPE OF A JOB, THE HOPE NEEDED FOR LIFE - ALL FOUNDED IN THE TRANSFORMING MESSAGE OF JESUS CHRIST. In Nicaragua, half the population consists of children or youth, and due to the overwhelming poverty many of them are in extreme need. One by One’s goals will be accomplished by building a network of children and youth centers, a Leadership Training Center, and educational systems.
HOUSE OF HOPE is an outreach and home to prostitutes in Managua. Many women have come to know Christ through House of Hope and a valiant group has made a stand to stop working the streets and attempt to support their families by various means, such as peddling candy and trinkets or making jewelry.

Various missons teams come to build more houses for the families at House of Hope. These houses are made out of styrofoam. It provides shelter for these women and a new beginning.
Small children beg on the streets everyday for their parents in lieu of going to school because they have no other options.
Homes like this are all over the city. Most of the city lives in extreme poverty.
Window washing is one of the most prominent methods for trying to provide for his family, especially for the handicapped.
One by One Missions Childrens' ministry leaders with a few of the kids at the Saturday service. Up to 300 children attend these services regularly. The only thing preventing more children from coming is lack of funds to rent more buses to get them there.
One of the boys at House of Hope now gets to attend school everyday because of people that support this ministry. U Designs proudly supports One By One Missions Nicaragua with our time and our money. Please help us to make a difference in this country too. To help support One By One Missions Nicaragua visit www.onebyonenicaragua.com.

Shannon & Wally
Congratulations to Shannon and Wally! They were married on October 17, 2009 at Claxton Farms in Weaverville, NC. U Designs was so excited to be a part of their day. We did the Wedding and Groom's cake, flowers (except the bouquets which were given as a gift from Twigs), Hair/makeup for the Bride, bridal party, and mother of the bride, as well as, the photography. It was a cold and wet day in the mountains, but it did not alter the joy of the day! Shannon and Wally are both so amazing and carefree. Everyone had such a fabulous time. They have such wonderful friends and family that I don't think anyone even noticed. Unfortunately, this gorgeous barn burned down just last week. Our sympathies go out to the Claxton family.
