"When entering what appears to be a war-zone it seems appropriate to enter with proper armor and protection. Love Light & Melody has learned however, that sometimes the most powerful weapons of protection are also the most surprising! This was most certainly the case for 2008's "Day of Light" celebration. On March 6, 2008 a ... Continue reading Dia De Luz 2008

I was involved in a medical mission trip to bluefields Nicaragua and I would love to get involved in your programs in Managua. My husband is a talented and recorded musician (Brad: He is the guy you borrowed the guitear from in Holland, MI). We both have hearts for helping people and would love to get involved. Please let us know how to go about doing that. Thanks, april muske

Reading this article has made me realize what a wonderful life I have. These people in Managua should not have to live a life of poverty. I would love to get involved and do whatever I can to help. Braddigan Corrigan is a wonderful person along with everyone else involved in this fantastic project. I would really love to get involved to help the people of Nicaragua. I really hope this project continues. God bless all involved in this beautiful project.

I was moved by what I have seen and read about your project. Do you project encourage travelers from around the globe to visit Managua? What would one need to do to coordinate a visit to help wherever needed, whether for Dia De Luz or any other time of the year? Regards, Ray

Thank you for your touch to the people who need it most. I would like to offer my assistance in any way needed. Our church has done many mission trips all over the world. Please advise on how we can assist and perhaps present helping through a missions trip. We can also do a fund raiser etc. Please advise.

Brad; I had the pleasure of speaking you with Sept 9, 08 at JAX as you checked in to return home. I do not know if you recall but you were unable to check in and required assistance. Ath this time your record had to be retrieved and your MPI status provided the venue for our exchange. Never do we know the purpose that others are placed in our paths and I give great praise to the Lord for being the "all knowing" and the "great I am". Instead of dedicating time to my final (which is due on 14 Sept) I have been viewing lovelightandjoy in an effort to discover more. I have been touched and educated in several ways. Always, as we seek doors open to us as we realize a greater purpose of giving, loving, sharing, hope and faith is the driving factor of all which is good, those "things" which are right. "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." 2 Timothy 4:7 As I move forward the direction is to complete my ba (Human Services Management) and lean towards the direction of time spent with your organization. Thank you and all of the others for the effortless time and dedication to the people in this community, how they must love you! I am sharing the website with a list of many in the hopes they will reach within themselves as they question, "there has to be more...." There certainly is, as others sharing comments have reinforced. Be well... Cheryl Young United Airlined, JAXOZ

Hi Brad Thank you! Thank you for having the courage to make a difference and inspire others. You are quite wonderful. I would love to help get your story and that of the beautiful people you are helping out there and raise more awareness. I first heard of what you are doing through the new clip for Chris Daughtry's song - What About Now. Please contact me so that I may assist. Take care Brad, and all the very best. Warmest regards Belinda
