Welcome from the Panama Convention President


This morning we were warmly welcomed by Francisco Medina, President of the Panama Baptist Convention. His challenge to the Convention attendees will be to become more missional as individuals and to take back to their respective congregations a focus on looking outwards to the needs of their communities. Many congregations have been looking inward, by habit, and they seek a change.

We had lunch with some of the early Convention attendees, and I got to practice a little Spanish while trying to communicate with Panamanian brothers and sisters.

The Panama Convention leadership message was also that we should seek to glorify God will all the works of this new partnership.
