Thank you for your part in supporting our medical mission trip to Brazil over Spring Break, March 9th - 20th. It will be a wonderful opportunity to reach out and share God's love with others.
While in Brazil the main focus of our ministry will be on . . .
-Medical clinics in river communities along tributaries of the Amazon River
-Evangelism and Discipleship
-Children's Ministry
I am getting really excited about what God will be doing in the lives of the people we minister too. It will be awesome not only to be able to meet a physical need for the people but also to share with them the great news of God's love for all people and the hope that Christ gives.
I will be blogging every once in a while to keep you all posted on the missions trip, prayer requests, photos, as well as how God is working in my life, our team's lives, and the lives of the people in Brazil. You can join me in praising God for laying it on the hearts of many to give and allowing me to make the Nov. 29th deadline of raising $1,350. Continue to pray as there is still a need for $1,050 to be given before the 3rd deadline, Jan. 19th. I have faith God will provide.
Pray also for the full-time missionaries that live in Brazil. Dick and Cleide Parker moved to Brazil and started the river ministry which reaches out to Brazilians who never heard the gospel before. Today there are still people in the villages along the Amazon River that have not had the the same opportunity we have had to know God. There are now three generations of Parkers that are missionaries in Brazil. The names of the couples are the following: Rick and Kim; Greg and Annie; and Gary and Sandie. Please remember to lift them up in prayer.
Thanks again! Stay warm and enjoy this Christmas Season celebrating Christ's birth!
