Soto Family Ministry Update - September 2022

  Hola!   We hope this letter finds you all well! Here is our latest Soto Family Update, to let you know some of what we have been up to here!  We sure have been keeping busy here with ministry, work, and school!  The kids recently finished their 2nd trimester of their school year.  Wow, time sure does fly!  I seriously think every day flies by faster than the days before.  🤦🏽‍♀️ The kids seem to be growing up so fast!  😭   Slow down time!! After over 2 years, we were finally able to safely receive 3 Work & Witness teams since the pandemic began.  It has been so nice being able to serve alongside teams again!    In June we thoroughly enjoyed our time with our Flint Central team.  This team focused on Youth Outreach and it was wonderful to see our dear neighbor youth/friends and others  interact with them through different  activities, like basketball, soccer, and working together at the Stoker Family Care project site in Tocumen.  They were without a doubt a blessing to

Hola from the warm and rainy Panama!     So here’s our most recent Soto Family update!  Our Ministry Some of you out there may wonder, “What is it exactly that the Soto’s do there in Panama?”  Well, let us explain a little about our ministry!  We are missionaries for the Church of the Nazarene.  Years back, our family was called to serve the churches and people of Panama through missions via a ministry called “Work & Witness.”  W&W is a ministry opportunity for teams of around 20 members (more or less) from around the world to go and serve in whichever country God leads them to.  We are the coordinators for W&W Panama.  We coordinate with the teams and local churches to meet needs  around the communities in Panama.  Much of our work involves getting to know the local people and learning about their true needs.  There are many details and much work to take care of from way before the teams arrive, until way after they leave.   Once here, we host the teams

Truth is…. Truth is….  I’ve been meaning to write this update for months now.  Eli and I desire to do this way more often than we have, to keep our friends and family up to date on what’s going on with us and our ministry here in Panamá.  From time to time we’re able to give updates via Facebook, email, Skype, and personal phone calls, but we desire to send out more formal updates. So here it goes…. WARNING:  This is long! Reality is, we have three children ages 11, 4, and 1 year.  Thing is, living abroad, we have no family living close.  Eli and/or I are with our babies 24/7, which we LOVE don’t get us wrong.  But fact is at the stages each of them are in, well, each stage comes with a different set of needs.  And these needs, along with the housework, the ministry, and just everyday life keeps us going literally from sun up to way past sun down.  I’m so thankful for my handsome husband who without fail, does his part and more to help us keep things going.  He’s one in
