Things are going very well here in Panama. We are seeing the work of the Lord through the Church Planting Institute. I ask that you pray for some key conferences that are coming up. April 20-21 is a study on the book of Acts. We are expecting 400 people to attend. We are also doing 4 workshops in different areas in Panama. We believe that this is the training ground for our trainers and seeing more people trained in church planting. We are in week 8 of a 20 week course with 22 church planters. March 24 we start a new class for the Kuna Church Planters. We are expecting 50 people for the course. Later in May, we will have another conference planned focusing on Storying - telling the Bible through stories. This technique can be especially helpful when working with illiterate people who can't read or write. I ask you to keep these events, classes, and conferences in your prayers. God is working! It's exciting to be a part of it!

This is a picture of some of our Monday night group. God is working in their hearts and teaching them many things as they learn to trust Him everyday! What a joy to experience God with them!
