1. 2 Chronicles 20 Be Still and Know
Hola! (Hello!),
We are very excited that you have chosen to take this adventure into Panama! We
want you to know that we are proud of you! You have chosen to allow God to use you
to change the world this summer. Please know that we are praying for you, believe
in you and in what God is doing in your life.
We would like to encourage you to do a few things before the trip:
First, start (or continue) PRAYING! Jesus told us to pray for “workers in His
harvest fields” (Matt. 9:37). Begin praying for your fellow missionaries,
leaders (Global Partner – Pastor Federico, your Team Leaders-Laura,
Courtney, Steve, and Nick; and Missionary Advisors), the pastors and
churches in San Blas, and the Kuna and Panama people.
Second, believe God is equipping you for this trip. Believe that He is the One
who has called you to bring the gospel to the people of Panama, and He is the
One Who will supply all your needs (money, strength, boldness etc.).
Please pay special attention to the information on the Global Expeditions website

Utilize these two websites! They have valuable information and preparation
materials on it. And it is a great place to connect before and after the trip. AND
your parents can see what is happening DURING the trip as we will be posting
updates and pictures!!! If you know Spanish, awesome!!! Brush up on it and you will
have opportunity to put it to good use!!!
We are sending along with this letter a prayer card that you can use for your own
prayer time as well as to give to your supporters. You can write a personal note on

2. the back or add any message or graphics you’d like, print it, and give to prayer
partners for our trip. Also, included is a packing list.
If you can play the guitar and have had experience leading worship (even in a very
small setting), please contact us as soon as possible!!! We are looking for several
people that can help lead worship for our teams.
As we endeavor to “Reflect His Love” to the people of Panama and especially the
Kuna of the San Blas Islands, we will more fully understand what it means to Love
God and to Love People.
Take a moment and imagine –imagine the impact that you will have on the lives of
the people of Panama…imagine what God is going to do – because you are allowing
God to work in you. Imagine what can happen – what great things can come out of
letting God work in your life. God can and will do even more than we can think or
imagine (Eph. 3:20). We challenge you to begin to imagine. What could God do if …
Let’s expect God to do more than we can imagine - because we allow Him to use us
to our fullest potential. As we learn to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit, let’s
become disciples not just converts.
Loving God and Loving People,
Lisa Howard and Jeremy Isom
Your Project Directors
PS – please share this information with your PARENTS/GUARDIANS!!! They will
