Raul & Adrianna Herrera
Resonate Global Mission in Managua, Nicaragua, Central America
The Regional Connections Coach is a new position for Resonate in 2021 with the goal to increase opportunities and connections for mutual learning and support in both Central and North America. We will get to know different Resonate partner organizations in Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Costa Rica to begin with, and also North American churches connected with these organizations. By God’s grace the people partnering will let us mentor and walk alongside them in their international relationships, and we hope to help them improve lines of communication, increase their generosity, and focus their learning. Along with resources flowing from North to Central America, we want to see Central Americans helping and lifting up North Americans to foster greater appreciation for the global church and strengthening unity through the bond of Christ.
