Thanks for your support

[Sister Alvear]

I just wanted everybody on the forum to know we love you all so much and appreciate all the support you all have sent to us and the work in Brazil. This has been a wonderful year and many souls have come to the Lord.
This year our oldest adopted son moved to the jungle with a burden for the jungle folks. Our son Michael was odained as a pastor. Many Brazilian workers were ordained as ministers and we were able to send out several Brazilian missionaries.
Of course we have had our share of battles but that comes with warfare.

Tonight our son Raul Jr is up in the state of Ceara...and a group of us leave Friday for he jungle...

Our newest grandbaby was born this month. The daughter of Chad and Rebecca. That makes us 15 grandbabies...

May God bless you all and repay you for helping those who live in the regions beyond. The Alvear´s
