Your donations are always appreciated, but more importantly, we would like your participation:  Please get involved by praying, encouraging, and getting involved in the several fund-raising events with your team.

In case you’re wondering…

This is Abby getting her visa !  But, it is so much more than that:  This is what joy looks like…and relief; and excitement; and pent up anxiety; and patient waiting; and the end of second guessing; and hope realized; and active praise !…

This is answered prayer; this is being humbled by the power of God; this is being granted favor in the eyes of those in authority; this is confirmation; this is faith being strengthened; this is the growing conviction that you are walking in His steps;

This is GOD – Glorifying Himself !

Stay tuned for more of God’s work as we travel to Brazil and serve Him!
