About Gamboa Union

Gamboa Union Church is a non-denominational congregation scripturally based on the Apostle’s Creed and seeking to flow with the work of the Holy Spirit in the world today. Gamboa Union has also been greatly involved with Youth With A Mission over the years, but now that ministry has been reloacted to Chiriqui.

Gamboa Union Church has been involved in a variety of ministries over the years as the community and the canal area underwent changes. After the U.S. military left the Canal Zone in January 2000, almost 60% of the congregation left as well. Since then the Lord has brought together a congregation which includes many Wounan and Embera Indians who live up the river from Gamboa. Gamboa Union has also become the home church for Youth With A Mission, a ministry located about 30 minutes away. Tourists staying at the nearby resort also visit us Sunday mornings at 10:00 am.
