The 11 Mountain Gateway pastors arrested in Nicaragua in December have been sentenced to 12 to 15 years in prison and have been ordered to pay over $80 million each in fines.
U.S. Rep. Robert Aderholt (R-Haleyville) is calling on the release of 11 pastors affiliated with Mountain Gateway, a non-profit organization operating in Nicaragua.
Spreading hope and the love of God is a mission one family from Alabama has been on for many years. Through blood, sweat, tears and dedication to the Word, Mountain Gateway works fiercely to serve those in need and has been doing so since 2006. Now, they are facing religious persecution, with their assets seized and members imprisoned without any way to communicate with the outside world.
