Being the hands, feet, and voice of Jesus to the people of Nicaragua.
Because of Him, we will partner with established believers to feed His flock, build homes, strengthen communities, and make disciples through education and teaching. In all this, we share life together.

Cristo Rey is a barrio (neighborhood) in Tipitapa, Nicaragua, where many families were relocated from Managua’s city dump. Promised a better life, they arrived to an empty yucca field with no water, electricity, food, or shelter. They only had hardship and uncertainty.
Through the hope and transformation of Jesus, we are serving the people of Nicaragua and empowering students through education. Together, we’re addressing urgent needs today while paving the way for a brighter tomorrow.
What We Do

Children’s Feeding Program
Christ the King’s Kitchen provides the only meal of the day for many children in Cristo Rey, offering not just nutrition but also hope and belonging.

Senior Feeding Program
Christ the King’s Kitchen provides seniors in Cristo Rey with nutritious meals and a sense of community, often serving as their primary source of sustenance.

Student Sponsorships
Education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty in Cristo Rey. Since 2014, the Student Enrichment Program has helped students access quality education, with many becoming the first in their families to graduate high school.

Christmas in Cristo Rey
In December, we host a special Christmas Celebration for the children and seniors in our feeding program. The day includes a festive lunch, and each participant receives a bag of provisions to help them through the holiday season.

Team Visits
A mission trip is a life-changing experience. It will shift your perspective to see the world through Jesus’ eyes. Material things fade in importance, money becomes just a tool, and love becomes the driving force as you share God’s compassion with those in need.

Who We Are
Life Together Nicaragua, founded in 2013, is dedicated to serving the people of Nicaragua by partnering with local communities to bring hope and transformation. Our mission thrives in the Cristo Rey community, where we run a feeding center providing meals to children, seniors, and pregnant mothers, and a specialized nutrition program for malnourished children. We also offer a safe space for community events, building strong connections.
Our Education Center serves as a hub for students, young mothers, and Bible classes, nurturing both faith and knowledge. As a registered 501(c)(3) and an OSFL in Nicaragua, we welcome mission teams from around the world, supporting efforts like building homes, running camps, facility improvements, and providing essential supplies. Together, we’re making a lasting impact on families and individuals, one step at a time.
Our Staff
Our staff and volunteers are the heart and soul of everything we do. Their dedication, expertise, and passion are what make our success possible. Each team member plays a vital role, contributing their unique talents to create a supportive and dynamic environment. Without their hard work and commitment, we simply couldn’t achieve the level of excellence we strive for every day. We are deeply grateful for their efforts and proud to have such an incredible group of individuals driving our mission forward.
