PAAM (Panameños Alcanzando Al Mundo — Panama
Follower of Jesus since 2011, daughter, sister, wife, friend, always ready to put the gifts that God has given me at the service of others. I have been a follower of Jesus since university. Since then, I have served in my local church at the Children's, Women's, and Missions Ministries. I had the opportunity to go on my first mission trip to Jordan in 2020 and then to Egypt in 2022.
During my trip to Jordan, I was able to witness the need firsthand, and after my trip to Egypt, God confirmed my calling. Today, together with my husband (Fabian) and his support, I have made the decision to be an active part of God's work in the world, especially among the unreached people.
God has gifted me in the area of Finance, and one of my dreams is to see lives transformed by the power of the Gospel, where not only their spiritual lives are touched but also their community and lifestyle. God invites me to be part of the PAAM team as Strategy Coordinator to develop projects (focused on three areas: evangelism/discipleship, access to the Bible in their language, and community development) and raise funds to bring transformation to the communities where they are already working. This way, there will not only be availability of the Gospel in the language of their hearts but also development in their communities. They will have the basic resources that we as human beings need and a dignified life.
