Jacob & Laura Bacon

My heart has been attuned to missions from a young age, marveling at the stories the missionaries shared at mission conferences. In my early teenage years, I had the honor of going on several mission trips where God opened my eyes to His love for ALL people, nations, and tongues. As I studied to become a nurse, I interned for three months over the summer in Nicaragua helping to open an infant orphanage. Several years later, after taking the Globe Perspectives class, God stirred something deep within me and I moved to Nicaragua as a full-time orphanage nurse for two orphanages. It was an incredible time seeing first-hand how God saw and cared for the abandoned, neglected, and abused, and transformed their lives through His love. A couple of years later, I felt God was calling me to move back to the States to further my education. After returning to the United States, I met my husband Jacob, who shares the same love for others. Over the years it has been incredible to look back and see how God orchestrates every detail.

We have been called to go wherever and however God directs to disciple and love those God puts in our path, whether halfway across the globe, or in our own backyard. Our hope is contagious, and God’s light is not hidden.

We have a heart for the broken, and partner with ministries to provide medical services, encouragement, teaching, and to help wherever needed. God has sent us to different places, with the majority of our ministry in Nicaragua. We pray that God will direct our steps and use us as His hands and feet.

It is our privilege to serve, and we couldn’t thank you enough for your support!
