As I was working on the soccer entry I realized I should post a few pictures of the kids. I was blessed to have the whole family with me for these first 2 soccer camps while the kids were still on their Christmas break. It’s really amazing to watch them interact and use their Spanish to…
We are so excited to walk through this new door that God has opened for us in the form of Soccer Camps. As many of you know mid December through the end of February marks our “Summer” here in Panama. That means, for most of the kids, there is NOTHING TO DO! Well, it is…
For the first time since the U.S. invasion of Panama, the Panama canal was shut down. This time however, it was for a different reason. On the days leading up to December 7th we were drenched with a non-stop rain that caused many rivers in our country to overflow their banks. Some have said it…
This year we had almost 1000 students come out for “Desafio Extremo” or Extreme Challenge. We saw God move in some awesome ways and challenge the students to give up some of themselves and to go all in for God. Above is a photo of our opening evening service. We held it outside and the…

On April 21-23, Panama hosted the ‘Misiones en Conjunto’ or MEC conference. The conference is held for all of the Spanish speaking world and delegates from Argentina to Mexico and even from Spain converged on Panama City.
