Who are LifeBridgers?
Soo-Young found LifeBridge in the midst of the Pandemic. Although for her, the pandemic wasn't even an inconvenience, because the same month Covid hit the Americas, Soo-Young's husband asked for a divorce. That began a brutal two years for her, including parental alienation syndrome, corruption with lawyers, corruption with mental health professionals, bribery, lies, manipulation, control, a suicidal daughter, broken family, child abuse case, domestic abuse case, financial abuse, hidden assets, adultery, tax evasion, and the list goes on. It was an extreme low. But it was at this time that Soo-Young came got connected at LifeBridge.

LifeBridge became her direct connection to God and during the Covid years she got to know God intimately. She fasted, studied the Bible, had daily time with the Lord, and started serving at LifeBridge. As she fellowshipped with her brothers and sisters weekly and consistently, she fell in love with her local church (LifeBridge).
Now, this is what Soo-Young says about her self: " I am different now. I am transformed. I have found my forever family and I know who my God is and who I belong to. I am hopeful."
Soo-Young has been living in Panama for 13 years. She was born in South Korea and at the age of 7 she moved to Southern California where she was raised, educated, married and had her three beautiful children.

Leadership Gathering
Our Leadership team went two years of only meeting via zoom. Despite not having face-to-face meetings for such a long time we persevered; however, we are glad the days of only meeting via zoom have ended. In January, our leadership team gathered at our house to just be together. It was such a blessing to be together and gave us a renewed excitement for what is to come.

Location, Location, Location
Our move has been frustrating! Processes like these move way slower than we want then to, especially with a North American mindset. Processes that we "think" should be streamlined take weeks longer than we want to and it can be hard when motivation appears low. However, we do continue to move forward.
We are very close to signing a contract! Please continue to pray for our Relocation Team and for the details in the coming few weeks to come together smoothly. LifeBridgers are excited and we know this move will be a boost for all of us!

Our Little Panamanian
Reagan will be ONE this month! Where has time gone? Reagan loves being outside and has had some great times at the beach since we are in the midst of Panamanian summer. She is crawling and climbing and so close to walking. We have enjoyed adventures together and enjoy showing Reagan new things.
