Sunday, March 2

Thank you for praying for safe travel. Everything went smoothly including
ALL BAGS making it to Manaus! We left Manaus on the Amor around 2:00 am and
arrived at our first village, Cristo Ressuscitado (Resurrected Christ), just
after noon, ate lunch, prepared for VBS and our drama production then
entered the village around 2:00. Medical, dental, VBS, eyeglasses, soccer,
women's, men's, and youth ministries took place for about 200 people! Our
5:00 pm service included songs in English and Portuguese, our drama, and
testimonies from Reagan Rice and Van Beckwith. What a blessing to see many
riveted for over an hour...trusting that the Word does not return void.

We'll spend the morning in the same village, then head on to Caninde which
is about the same size. We're weary from travel and our first day in the
sun, but headed to bed early (9:00 pm). Looking forward to what God has in
store for tomorrow.

Blessings and thank you for your continued prayer!
