After lots of thought and spiritual growing, these two wonderful parents of mine have decided to serve the Lord for 18 months. They put their papers in in mid April expecting to have a call within a few weeks! The waiting was killing all of us! Every Tuesday we would wait for a text to see if it came. Finally, we got the text!
We all joined over a zoom call and they joyfully read their call together.
You have been called to serve in the Panama City, Panama Mission. They didn't have to learn spanish but it is a spanish speaking area. So they started brushing up on their spanish right away. They had 60 days exactly to have things in order and be ready to leave!
We all immediately started looking up fun facts about Panama and trying to learn about it. I think they were both shocked to death! We learned it is very rainy, that it had a temple, it was only a 3 days drive, but it actually isn't drivable at all. And that it a very large city with tons of sky scraper buildings. We have had fun helping them get their home ready and learning about Panama right along with them. While its going to be hard to have them gone, I know they are going to be so amazing in helping further the work. They are putting so much trust in the Lord and I know they will be blessed as well as their family. I'm so grateful for their example and willingness to do something hard.
