Below is a message recorded by Pastor/Missionary and NWA Friend, Manolo Lozada from Nicaragua. He was recently in Shelby visiting for a week raising support for his mission in Nicaragua. He is always such a blessing and an encouragement. Take a look at his video:

Greg is currently working for and employed by a ministry called New Wilderness Adventures as a missionary.
Through NWA Greg and Kryssy have had the opportunity to go on the international and home mission field to disciple, train pastors, mentor young men and women, and lead families of all ages into serving God through missions. Greg has also had the opportunity to go into 2 Texas Prisons where NWA gets to lead services for over 400 men and women. Two units; Beto Unit in Tennessee Colony and Hobby Women’s Unit in Marlin. Barry Strickland, our missionary in Dallas TX has the privilege of going weekly. Greg also leads NWA’s Guide Network initiative where we are training Guides. Through this, Greg daily walks with men who want to disciple and mentor other men. In essence, Greg gets to mentor the mentors. Moreover, Greg daily walks with men going through sexual addictions. Daily counseling and leading them in the restoration through Christ’s work of healing. Lastly, Greg and Kryssy walks with men, women and their families; simply being their for them in the “fox holes of life,” day by day!
NWA exists to build the family by introducing men to Christ, the ultimate man, and to introduce them to a life of adventure as His followers. NWA believes that God intends men to be strong and noble. We seek to reach men in all walks of life through adventure, marketplace ministry, discipleship, and counseling.
Here’s what Mark Folk, founder and director of NWA says: “I am passionate about inspiring men toward a lifestyle of ongoing transformational intimacy with Christ, so that they might fulfill- both in life and personal ministry- all that God intends for them as His image bearers.”
We have already sponsored ourselves and are participating as Golfers in this event. All we need you to do is to sponsor (Greg or Kryssy) with either a pledge to be paid after the event, or you can sponsor one of us with a secure on-line gift by clicking on the “yes” link below.
We will be golfing 18 holes and need sponsors for each hole at the level of your choosing. We are hoping for $100.00 per hole but please feel free to give whatever you feel God telling you to. We have sponsored ourselves for hole #1 at that level, and are asking you to sponsor one of us for one of the remaining 17 holes. All gifts are appreciated! Last year, some folks gave a few dollars a hole and we had a few that were able to give $500 or more on pledges. Once again, all gifts are so appreciated.
We really are thankful for your willingness to stand with us in our passionate support and investment in the ministry of New Wilderness Adventures.

My name is Gregory Love Sailors. As a child and even as a young man I really wasn’t happy with my parents for naming me “love.” I was teased and called “lover boy,” “g-love,” love daddy” and so on and so forth. It was not easy for sure but God really had a plan for me and it was partly encompassed in that name.
My great grandfather’s name was “Love.” I never knew him but I remember stories from my father and later from my mother about his strength, his wisdom and yes his love. He was a carpenter that late in life (70ish) was called to be a preacher and then a church planter. I wish I could have met him; I’ve been told he was an amazing man that had hands that, “told their own stories.”
I hold his name sake and now am very proud of my name. It really has become a blessing and I believe a module or standard for my life. God wants me to love like He does! Through the linage of my family, whether my father’s family or mother’s family, each side has had great lovers of God and of His people as well as those that do not know Christ. On their shoulders I stand.
As you most likely know if you are reading this post, NWA is going to Nicaragua in just a few hours and my prayer is that the blessings I have had from my family and from the Spirit of God will be made manifest in and through me in everything I and our Team does while ministering to the families in Nicaragua. Mark’s advanced word was that we preach, “Christ Crucified.” as Oswald Chamber’s says and as Saint Patrick’s Breastplate would say, may Christ be in every ear that hears us, every eye that sees us, every mind that thinks of us as well as Christ before us, behind us, above and below us, to our right and left as well as in our past and future.
Fierce Love will move upon the people of this earth! Let that Love prevail over darkness and bring Light in all and through all! Amen! Thank you all for your prayers! More to come!
