Report from the Mission Field, Panama
We just got back from our Panama Mission trip. God blessed our trip and our efforts to help the poor people in the Chepo area. Our eye surgery team was able to perform 39 cataract surgeries, 117 pterygium removals, and the medical team helped over 1800 people with their health problems and reading glasses. Our construction team helped renovate a place for a family to live so that they didn't need to move into a shack....and the family was incredibly grateful.
The evangelistic meetings in the evenings grew every night. The Panamanian Christians worked with us. 18 people came to faith in Jesus and were baptized. The church got a big "shot in the arm".
