Blessings to all

our Back2Eden friends,
family and followers!
Many of you have been
on the journey with us as
it pertains to the estab-
lishing our Back2Eden
Lifestyle Center in Bo-
quete, Panama. We have
made a conscious effort
to share our progress
with you as we believe
that God has been faith-
ful in opening up the av-
enues for us to have this
Lifestyle Center. We
have also received inquiries from many as to what our
project is all about and how you may be able to aid us
with it. This booklet is created to give you all the recent
updates, share with you our goals and also request your
support for us to continue the progress of this project
in Panama.

Our Goals

These goals are twofold

1. To promote physical and spiritual health through the up-
holding of biblical principles as found in the word of God.
Back2Eden has a practical approach whereby we aren’t on-
ly speaking to others about healthy lifestyle but allowing
them to experience it at our center. Our goal is to host life-
style guest who will be able to receive practical lifestyle
training, cooking & baking classes, medical missionary train-
ing, agriculture training, relationship counseling and bible
education.

2. It is our objective to do agriculture on the Back2Edenlife-
style center property in Boquete, Panama whereby we
would grow organic produce and dedicate a portion of this
produce to aid the less fortunate and those who have been
struck by natural disasters. The Back2Eden family has
strong ties to the Caribbean and has personally experi-
enced the aftermath of a natural disaster in the like of hurri-
cane Irma. For this reason, we have established that our
relief work would include hurricane and natural disaster
relief in and around the Caribbean. This relief work entails
growing organic produce that would be labelled and stock
by Back2EdenLifestyle by using dehydration or the water
bath and pressure canning method. This way we would be
able to store food for a long period (5 to 10 years) without
using ‘harmful or animal’ additives and preservatives yet
still maintain the nutritional value we need from them.

What have we done thus far?

The Back2Eden family has moved forward in accomplish-
ing as much as our own personal means could carry us
as we are strongly convicted that God has called us to
move into this direction. We also believe that God will
do for us what we cannot do for ourselves. However, He
does require us to take the first step in faith. Hence, we
have put the following principal as found in James 2:17
into practice: “faith by itself, if it does not have works, is
dead”. With that in mind we have ventured out and
were able to accomplish the following by the grace of
God:
1. July 2017 visited properties in Panama;

The rainy season in
Panama causes the
tide to rise very
high. For this reason
a hydraulic study
was done which
considers the flow
and the behavior of
the river over the
last 100 years. Based
on this study and a
special soil study the
location and the
type of bridge was
chosen. Above you will find the architectural design of
the 20x4.2 (meters) concrete and steel bridge.
The bridge has 10
meters base
(foundation) on
both sides which
totals to 40 linear
meters.

7. August 2019 clearing the boarders and planting
natural fence;

As you see by God’s grace we have been able to steadi-
ly make progress with this project. We have now come
to a point wherein the property needs to be utilized for
the purpose it was purchased and the plans that have
been made can be executed in phases.
The next phase is to clear the rest of the front so we
are able to complete the road network to the water
stream. After this road network is completed our goal
is to build a bridge that will connect the front of our
property to the back.

How can you help?

Many of you have been asking and indicating that you
would be willing to help. The time has come whereby
we can truly use your help in financing some of the infra-
structure for the property. We are requesting your help
per phase so you are able to follow the progress as you
make your donations.

The first financial aid we are requesting would be to
start and complete the construction of the access
bridge (one-vehicle traffic). The estimated total cost is
€155.000,-. This phase will be executed in two sub phas-
es; the first entails the clearing and preparing of the
road /access area to the bridge, and has an estimated
cost of €35.500,-. To complete this phase it would take
up to 8 weeks. At the completion of this phase we will
be selecting two donors who will receive an all-inclusive
trip to the location of the center so that they are able to
give everyone a live update of the progression of the
work on site. In this way we would like to have each one
of you personally involved in every step of this project.

The second sub-phase entails the actual construction
of a steel bridge, which has an estimated cost of
€119.500,-. To complete this phase it would take up to 4
months. At the completion of this second sub-phase
we will be selecting two new donors who will receive
an all-inclusive trip to the location.
We hope and pray that you will prayerfully consider
contributing to this project so that we are able to bless
many through you!
Blessings,
Back2EdenLifestyle Family
