Today, Saturday, we got an early start from the town of David (pronounced Dah-veed) and traveled far to see and hear firsthand of the church needs in the western part of Panama. Nearly all churches need some kind of discipleship training to grow their members into missional lay persons. Most churches have some kind of outreach, then once they obtain members it is difficult to keep them engaged and active.
We traveled from David to Boquete, Cerro Punta, and other parts of Chiriqui. There was lots of car riding to get us back and forth.
We met the pastors and some of their members at the churches and were touched by their desire to do God's work with very little in the way of materials. In all we visited six different churches in our 12 hour travel day.
