Leaders Deny Political Involvement
Jon Britton Hancock, the founder and president of Mountain Gateway, emphasizes that the organization’s activities are purely religious and devoid of any political agenda.
Despite accusations of political mobilization, Hancock asserts that Mountain Gateway is solely focused on its religious mission and aims to promote the well-being of all individuals, regardless of political affiliations.
Mounting Concerns Over Persecution

The government’s alleged targeting of religious leaders and organizations sparks fear and uncertainty within the Christian community.
Reports of legal charges, including accusations of money laundering, add to the mounting pressure faced by those associated with Mountain Gateway.
Appeals for Freedom and Justice
In the face of adversity, Christian leaders like Jon Britton Hancock seek to uphold the values of freedom and justice.
Despite facing legal challenges and restrictions, Hancock remains steadfast in his condemnation of religious persecution and calls for greater respect for religious freedoms and human rights in Nicaragua.
Conclusion and Call for Action

With allegations of government overreach and suppression of dissenting voices, calls for international intervention and support grow louder, urging leaders like Daniel Ortega to prioritize freedom and human rights above political power.
