Panama (Youth Trip) | July 2012
Leader: Pastor Erik Brown [EBrown@cloverhillag.org]
If you are planning on going on this trip, please email Stephanie Quick at SQUICK@cloverhillag.org asap with your name and phone number.Application and first installment of $300 due by March 21st.
The Panama trip this year will be lead by pastor Mike Buckley who lead the Panama trip last year and has led several South and Central American trips. We will fly into Panama City and spend a little time there but most of our ministry time will be be spent in Chitre, a much more indigenous and poorer district. In Contrast to our past year's trips rather than doing kids ministry we will be targeting Panama's youth through the venues of the public schools and local churches. We will be focusing on sharing the gospel and serving the youth through Assemblies, Sermons, testimonies, Drama and any other way we can convey the message of Jesus.
Also, it will be a good first time or younger youth trip because we are not going to immerse ourselves entirely into the 2nd and 3rd world cultures. We will be ministering in these cultures but for times of rest and rejuvenation we will be staying in a nice hotel with all the other American youth groups that will be on the trip as well. This style of experience works really well because it challenges your American status quo but not to the point where the conditions become a physical frustration.
I'm really excited about this trip and can't wait to see God work in all of lives as we make financial, physical, and spiritual sacrifices to serve God and serve people. So pray about this trip to make sure your being directed by God, email Stephanie Quick that you're coming, get to work on your passports and shots right away, and fill out all the application info.
