PANAMA

With roughly 4% of the world’s trade passing through Panama every year, the country is blessed with one of the most advanced infrastructures in Latin America. In terms of wildlife, it is also the most diverse country in the region.

In recent years, the people have become increasingly interested in spiritual matters and more responsive to the Gospel as a result. Since 1970, evangelicals have grown from just 5% of the population to 20% in 2010.  Still, much work remains to be done.

e3 Partners is working to ensure that a thriving local church exists in every community throughout Panama. We are equipping existing believers and training local pastors to identify unreached communities and share the Gospel effectively. As people come to faith in Christ, we are establishing small groups that help them take the next steps in their spiritual growth and serve as the seeds for new churches. – See more at: https://e3partners.org/panama/home/discover/#sthash.rVloeqhv.dpuf

Until the whole world hears!

This phrase has been stirring in my heart and mind for the past several years.  Over the years with all of the mission trips that I have been on, God has tugged at my heart, to want everyone that I know and come in contact with to experience the love of Christ and to know Him as their personal Lord and Savior.

On my first mission trip with e3 Partners I was blessed to share the Gospel early one morning with a lady in her small fabric store in the front room of her house.  Little did I know, but one of her employees working on the other side of the room behind a counter was listening as we shared the hope, peace and love that Christ offers.  After sharing the good news with the owner of the shop we asked her if she would like to ask Jesus to become her Lord and Savior.  That’s when the employee came running up to us with tears in her eyes wanting to have in her heart what she had been missing her whole life.  She said that she knew something was missing in her life and there was nothing she could do to fill that void. She said when she heard the words that we were speaking there was a feeling that came over her and something was different something that she had never felt before.  The Holy Spirit was working in her life. We prayed with both the ladies that day for them to accept the love, hope and peace that Jesus has to offer.  Many people gave their life to Christ on that trip.  I see the work that is being done through e3 Partners to disciple new believers as new churches are being started all over the world.

Back in 2012 I felt God calling me to join with e3 Partners as an International Church Planter.  This position calls for me to partner with friends and family like you to raise support.  Would you pray about the possibility of supporting me through e3 Partners as I share the Gospel and plant churches internationally.
