Hello!
Yesterday was a day of travel for us, so we all enjoyed a day of fellowship and rest.
Today we visited a church "Templo da 1Igreja Batista". This church was a little different than the villages that
we've vistited over the past week. The other villages were of native indians while this area consisted mostly of
Brazilians.
After the church service let out, we set up our ministries- medical, dental, eye wear, vbs and women's. The line
for each of the health ministries was unbelievable. Since we dropped our doctor off with another boat in
Manaus, Heather was our only medical professional. She did a wonderful job of helping SO many people in
such a short amount of time. Dr. Eli, with the help of Bea and Lance pulled a number of teeth. The kids
enjoyed some time coloring and playing soccer with vbs. Our women's time today was a bit different than the
other villages since most of these women are already believers. We had the opportunity to share our stories
and bible verses that have changed our lives.
Tonight, our team will be leading a church service. We will be singing the Portugese song "Celebrate Cristo".
We've been practicing the past few days! Leslie and Brent will be giving their testimony and Francisco will be
giving the sermon.
We will visit our last village tomorrow! Please continue to pray for the team and that the Lord would be with us
on our last day with the natives.
Everyone here has had a wonderful time & cannot wait to update you on our personal experiences when we
get back!
