Words cannot express how grateful we are for you and our Brazilian/Amazon family. These last few weeks have been a once in a life time experience. It seems like just a few years ago we came to Brazil but now 50 years have passed.

          There are many of you that have prayed and supported us all of these years. The last few years many of you have come to help us with the Amazon Boat Trips. Many have sacrificed time and given up vacation to come and help. Brazilians cannot under- stand how you would come and even have to pay your own way and give a contribution to the mission. But as you know that is the only way we could operate and be able to share the Gospel with those in Brazil and now even those in the Amazon Region.

         Our Brazilian family has certainly made us feel like we are a part of their family. We noticed that even our children feel like they are still a part of this family here in Brazil even though they live in the United States.

         We want to share with you in this letter our most recent Praises and Prayer Requests as well as the page of pictures that go along with these.

           Please visit our website (cbm.org.br). You can keep up to date with us and our CBM Ministry at the site. If you didn´t know, you can now make donations through PushPay.com. Thanks again for your faithful partnership with us during these many years.

With Grateful Hearts,

Earl, Ruth Anne and Amazon Team
