Exodus

By
Change is a fact of life. In the past six months we have felt that in
João Pessoa, brothers and sisters moving to other cities.

- Our AIM team of 6 young people, Michael Miller, Erick Paddy, Jenny
Merritt, Ashton Woods, Tiffany Dominguez, and Nyasha Alufayi, completed
their mission here and returned to the US. Boy, do we miss them.

- Lidiane moved to Ireland to work.

- Aninha moved to Natal because her husband was transferred there.

- Celia moved to Brasilia because her husband's job was transferred there.

- Hunter, Lori, Mathias, Sabrina, and Daniel Hagewood have moved to
Recife, since the company set up an office there.

- Fabio and Regiane moved to Campinas, São Paulo, also related to the company.

- Joe and Linda McKinney's time in Brazil has ended and they moved back to
the US.

We miss them all, and some seem irreplaceable in the work, but God
is in control and has a mission for each one in their new homes. Please
pray for our brothers and sisters around the world.

Juliana (age ten) was baptized by her older brother, Jheymerson, who was also ten years old when he gave his life to Jesus. What a wonderful blessing to have one's whole family saved in Christ! Maria and Cícero were also converted when we lived in Caruaru, though single at the time. They dated and got married, the ceremony performed by yours truly. Maria has been faithful to Jesus all these years though going through several difficulties. Cícero, on the other hand, fell away, but came back and renewed his life and his marriage, and now, along with Juliana, his daughter Vitória (age ten) was baptize...

Thank You, Patrick

By
February 28, 2011 was a tragic day for the McKinney family: Patrick, our friend and companion of four years, died. He was our pet cockatiel. A cockatiel can live up to twenty-five years, but Patrick's life was cut short when he got stepped on.     On the day,  intense grief cut short my breath, like a stone weighed on my sternum, blocking the air. The kids were devastated, and I couldn`t talk to anybody without my eyes tearing up.     I was embarrassed - I had to cancel the visits and Bible study I had lined up that day. I had comforted that very week three people, one who lost a father, and two who lost mothers, and here I was all torn up over a stupid bird. I was ashamed.     But then again, he wasn`t just a stupid bird. Patrick woke up every morning whistling the Brazilian national anthem. In his own way, he ruled the house, using his cage only for meals or to sleep. He was a bird free to come and go as he pleased - you`d think he ...
