Some rich folks gave one of our pastorīs daughter the ideal birthday party...and charged nothing...what a day for this little girl to remember!

That is neat.
It is even more special when we share it with God's people!

The country of our calling is Brazil. Along with Brazil we were over a work in the Philippines, have preached in the Azores, Portugal, Chile, Paraguay and a few other places...

I love the Philippines too...precious people.

Although I am terrified of flying (yup, I am skered of heights!) I would love to visit Brazil & your work that is there.

I remember going to a school in Egypt for a visit...the children were so cute...I wept after I got outside thinking most would grow up never to know about our Jesus...We are so blessed...
