District Assembly In Panama!!!

So our long awaited District assembly finally came!! and all I can say is Wow Wow Wow!!!!!!! It was so amazing. The dramas were so heart touching and really made us think of the time we are living in and how much Jehovah loves us and will always take care of us. The new publications...everything was incredible!! Truly Jehovah is very loving to us! The kids just loved the new brochure. So perfect for them!! Aren't they adorable!!!!!!!
My favorite release was the DVD. How loving our god is to make a DVD like this. Jehovah is really pleading and showing his love for those who have left the truth to come back!!
The assembly hall here in Panama is beautiful. Every person in Panama has heard about it especially because of how beautiful it is. It's in the same property that the offices of the Panamanian branch was at one time, before it got relocated under the Mexico branch. We went a day early and as you can see at the bottom we had some cleaning to do before the big day!! :) Of course it's spotless, just a little touch up!! Another unique thing about the assembly hall is that there is no walls. That way the breeze can go thru and it won't be to hot there.





 ...and this is how it looks with all the brothers arriving!


Look at the smile on their faces!!! Priceless!!!!!!

Justin spent most of the assembly in this little office working, but when I got the chance it was picture time!!!


 These are our friends from Spain that have been serving here for the last 2 years. He had 3 parts in the assembly, shows us the need they have here for more brothers. They had a whole family who they study with come to the assembly, even though that meant that they had to take a taxi at 4am, get to the bus from their town, then take another bus all the way to the assembly hall which is 4 hours away!! That family had the biggest smile on their face by the time they left. One of them is the boyfriend of the daughter who has not even started studying, he was the one that was the most impressed. He mentioned he had never experienced something like this before especially the drama really got to his heart! So as you can imagine how happy our friends were to have them come. What an example!!!
 This is another couple that just moved to Panama from Mexico about a month ago, to help in service here. They are both special pioneers and they are the sweetest couple!! There are a total of 8 couple in our District, including us, that have moved here from other countries to help.


 Warning!! If you haven't seen the drama yet, close your eyes for these pictures!! :) Our brothers did an amazing job with the drama!!
Needless to say the last day was a very sad day...saying goodbye to all the friends until the next assembly is never easy!! 
We love our assemblies it's a place where you feel protected and really loved. We meet so many new brothers and sisters every time. Can't wait for the next one!!!
