The Diaz family started a private orphanage in 2003 to serve the children of an impoverished neighborhood. Nicolas and Karla Diaz were led by the Lord to sell everything and move their family from Managua to this property, which served as the center for their ministry.   Over time, God moved the focus of their ministry to supporting the work of a large network of pastors and their congregations, many of which are located in rural, forgotten areas.  They provide pastoral care and support, feeding programs, infrastructure projects, and evangelical programs.  Jossiel Diaz, the son of Nicolas and Karla, stepped into leadership of the ministry, along with Karla, after Nicolas passed away.  The PCC youth group began its relationship with Diaz family in 2008, when they served at the orphanage and this relationship has continued to grow. PCC formally initiated our partnership with them in 2013, and we have partnered with them on many meaningful projects and mission trips.  In the spring of 2018, Nicaragua fell into crisis, and PCC helped the family to escape government persecution to safety in the United States.  Jossiel and Karla continue to guide the ministry from a distance, and Jossiel currently serves on PCC’s ministry staff.
