BAPTIST CHURCH
MEET THE MONTENEGROS
We are a family that responded to God's call by leaving our comfortable routine in our country, Nicaragua. We could sense God showing us
how unsatisfied we were in our hearts because He wanted us to serve in His Kingdom full time. He began to direct us, step by step on this path
as missionaries, leaving our country, traveling with 2 of our 3 daughters to attend a school in Ywam Panama called
DTS Disciple Training School for 5 months.
We arrived in Panama on February 18, 2021, little did we know that God wanted us here permanently. We traveled to El Salvador where during this time we could see God manifesting himself powerfully in many ways. We returned to Panama, where we started another school with
ISOM International School Of Ministry for 18 months, however the direction of where and how to work has always come from God's guidance.
He has sent people who have been sensitive to the voice of God and obedient to our good Father and have blessed my family and ministry in a surprising and loving way. We are very grateful for God's care and also for the different trials we have endured as they have increased our faith.
We are established in Boquete where God entrusted us with a ministry to the indigenous Ngäbe families who have received the Word of truth into their lives with joy and gratitude. We praise God for the harvest of souls, people freed from evil spirits, celebrating baptisms, men honoring God and their families by getting married, setting an example for future generations by living in obedience, giving value to women as the most fragile vessel, also discipling in leadership the men and women who work on coffee farms so that when they return to their regions, they carry the message of Salvation that gives eternal life in Christ!
We praise God for every smile we now see on the faces that were previously sad, angry and hopeless, children giving hugs, conversing freely and joyfully, teenagers feeling valuable and loved, now celebrating their lives with purpose and women preparing food to share with others.
Glory to God for every life that is changed, not only indigenous Ngäbe but also in every place we go we present the Perfect Plan of Salvation, thus fulfilling the great commission of our Lord Jesus. Our beloved Jesus is coming soon! Hallelujah!
1 Corinthians 4:20
For the kingdom of God does not consist in talk but in power.
UGANDA MISSION
In 1989, newlyweds Rev. Patrick and Eva Walusimbi left Kampala to found the Golgotha Missions Church. Their original vision was to develop and serve a small, rural congregation. However, Uganda was emerging from years of civil war in which over 500,000 had been killed. In addition, the country was beginning to feel the full effects of the devastating HIV/AIDS epidemic. Both tragedies left countless destitute and orphaned children behind. The Walusimbis found children coming to them, seeking food and shelter. First they took one child in to live with their family, then another, then another. As word spread of the care the Walusimbis provided for disadvantaged children, the stage was being set for the start of the Maranatha Schools.
Currently, MISP is made up of five schools, four primary and one secondary vocational. All together the schools serve roughly 1,300 orphaned and vulnerable children.

Cleft of the Rock Ministries
Started by Sam and Jane Ruth to help Ngäbe communities with well-water.
They started work with a community in Chorcha a few years ago to provide food to the children of the community. It became clear that water was desperately needed. Land was provided by Mrs Martina for the children's program.
Mrs Hollingsworth from Pennsylvania donated funds and the well could be placed.
This went hand in hand with a desire to provide education to the children of the community and set up a Panamanian non-profit foundation to encourage education. ProEducann was launched and will function under its Official Qualified Board of Directors.
On January 15, 2025 the well was inaugurated and dedicated to ProEducann for the education and food program of the children at the community of Chorcha.
