Sara's Update from 8-11-08






Another successful day here in Panama ! We are really enjoying the relationship building that we are experiencing with our readers. We have become good friends, and are getting more and more comfortable with talking about our relationship with God. The readers are very responsive and eager to learn not just about English, but about our Lord. With every encounter, we have seen God working. At the beginning it was hard for us to see it, but now it is crystal clear. Thank you Lord for making it clear for us to see your work. We feel that God is not only present in our conversations, but that he uses our voices to speak to those who don’t know him. We are so blessed to have God in our life. We couldn’t do this alone. I also would like to say how awesome it is to have a supportive team. We have become like a family. We eat together, talk together, cry together, and laugh together. Everything we do...we do it together, as a unity in Christ. Every day, we feel we have grown so much. We couldn’t do it without our Lord, and we couldn’t do it without each other. There is only 2 days left of LST, then another party on Friday. As the end is getting closer, we are all getting sad because we don’t want to leave. This is too bitter sweet. As this evening is closing, we are presently waiting for the 2nd Panama team to arrive from Miami . We have been praying that they have a smooth flight and an easy transition from the US to Panama . Church family...please continue to pray as the 2 teams work together the rest of the week to serve others and God. Soldados de Cristo signing out. Goodnight!

With Christian Love,

Sarah
