Reunion at Hotel Riando

On Tuesday afternoon, all the teams reunited at the Hotel Riando near the airport in Panama City. We were joined by Brothers Abel and Francisco, and gave our reports on what our experience was like as we traveled in small teams to different parts of Panama. Fortunately for all of us, Jay Butcher was our traveling videographer and he captured most of the reports on film.

We all will provide written reports to Craig Waddell at VBMB, but unanimously experiences were humbling, awesome, and a testament to how great our God is and how powerful the Holy Spirit moves within His people.

Among the kinds of needs the Panamanians have were having folks come and do VBS, teach ESL, work alongside their teams to build "churches" (concrete slab with four support beams and a metal roof), horses so their pastors can ride out to the country and evangelize, discipleship training, leadership training, teachers of all kinds, and many others. They are also putting together a list of ways they can come to Virginia and help us. Here is a picture of Pastor Ulysses (on the left) at his church.

What a great experience this has been. On Wednesday we get up very early to get to the airport and begin our journey back to Virginia.

Buenos Noches!
