Jesus Christ is the only hope for people like this...My reason of being a missionary!

Re: death in Brazil

We were able to bring them from the jungle JUST in time...Our son drove 21 hours and made it just less than an hour before his father in law passed away...

Re: death in Brazil

Sister Gilene came from such a dark area where idol worship reign...she went away to work in south Brazil when she was in her teens and it was there some years later she came to the Lord and later married our son Arlei. Due to the distance and cost she really has had so little contact with her own family. It burdened her that they are bound by such rituals and even though they are good people it is very hard to get through to them. In these places people blindly follow the priests and Rome...they are chained and live in fear of witchdoctors....
For people like this sometimes it takes years for them to understand...years to even shime a tiny light into their hearts...they shy away from us so it was a miracle that they let us have a service before taking the body to the priest...

We live in a complete different world....
