This weekend we held a conference on the Book of ACTS. It was an intensive conference that focused on the nine church plants of the book of Acts. We were blessed to have Elbert Smith, Director of FPO, with prior service in Mexico and Guatemala to lead the conference. The conference was held Friday night and all day Saturday with approximately 200 in attendance on Friday night and 150 for the Saturday event. We pray that each person gained valuable insight into church planting, and that many churches will be started in Panama as a result of the training. There were quite a few in attendance who are already hard at work starting churches in areas where there were no churches.
Cavin will be traveling to David, Panama this weekend to lead a Church Planting Conference in this city which is about 6 hours from the capital city. Please pray for him as he travels as well as those who will be attending the conference.
We are also gearing up for an Orality Conference on May 26. This conference will equip those present in the technique of telling the Bible through "storying" the Bible. This works well among groups who can't read or write.
God is working in Panama. Thanks for all of your prayers. They encourage us so much!
