It began with pink boxes and prayer. Over the years, we had prayed and talked about how we could involve women in the construction ministry of Builders International. On May 26, 2023, we mailed 17 pink boxes to our first SheBUILDS team members, headed for Nicaragua to work and minister at the Acahualinca Children’s Center.

I was blessed to join this great team of women, wanting to make a difference in the lives of women and children around the world. The following video tells the seven day story of our trip.

Why SheBUILDS?

Afflicted women and children find themselves crushed by the world. The SheBUILDS community brings hope to the hopeless by serving the oppressed and speaking up for those who seek justice.

What is SheBUILDS?

SheBUILDS is a community of ladies of means and influence, standing together with trusted community leaders around the world who are passionately meeting the needs of women and children. 

There’s several ways you can be involved with SheBUILDS!

1. Join a SheBUILD construction team that is meeting the needs of children and women
2. Travel to a project on a vision trip to see how you can make a difference
3. Attend a SheBUILDS fundraising event at an exciting venue

Most importantly, I invite you to join the SheBUILDS community at www.buildersintl.org/shebuilds. You will receive regular updates on what’s happening in the SheBUILDS community!

During our trip to Nicaragua, we were able to minister to the needs of 80 children and women, living in some of the poorest conditions at the cities oldest trash dump. I ask myself, “Where can Christ be found?” For I am convinced it is Christ and His love for us that changes everything.

Romans to 8:37-39 says . . .

"In all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Thank you for helping us reach those who have never heard of a love of Christ.
