Juselino's Report: As part of the e3Partners / MGPanama team, Juselino has being doing a great job on training and following up the work with churches that participated in the last Medical team taken to four communities in the Santiago area on March 2015. The report we got in general is that so far two churches have being following the IAS format for home churches with the purpose of multiplying themselves into more home churches, on the long run the vision is that these small churches eventually will become establish churches that will impact their communities. Besides the follow up he is expanding the ministry to the central provinces, a place where e3 / MGP served some years back.  In this area he is serving two pastors and their churches, we pray that we may be able to take a team to this area, of so much spiritual dryness. Mateo's Report: Serving the Lord at the Atlantic side of the Ngobe reservation, Mateo has being doing a good job on church planting.

Material for Church at Balsa This year our Lord has provided for churches in the Ngobe reservation to have construction materials needed to start building a place where to meet and worship and also outside houses (outside bathrooms).   The ministry was delighted to have calls from Pastors asking help with the transportation of these materials that were bought (1/2 the local church and 1/2 the ministry).  This way of providing 1/2 of what is needed and the transportation does not give a sense of full dependency, but of ownership in both ways.  The local churches have worked hard to be able to acquire the materials, so just that is a plus.

A ll glory to Him!  the truck is ready to keep on running for a while now.  Thanks so much for remembering this in your prayers. I n Him and until He comes ba
