Crusade Postponed for Jinotega

This is the view I was planning on having this Saturday in Jinotega, but we decided that it would be best to postpone the crusade until a later date.

I'm not one to live in fear, and I'm certainly not afraid of dying for my faith, but we just couldn't take the risk on sending 300-plus people from Managua to Jinotega in the middle of a nation-wide transportation strike. With two people killed already, and many cars and trucks damaged or burned, I didn't want to take any unnecessary risks. I know that Reinhard Bonnke might be a bit disappointed by our decision, but dying because of your faith is one thing, however, it is another thing all together to die in the hands of an angry taxi driver who just wants a better wage.
