The Amazon River is rising – and rising fast! The River is already at a height, which (if attained in years past) generally happened toward the end of June – and here we are only near the end of April! Many are saying that the watermark will surpass the record set in 2009, a mere 80 cm away.
While this might sound exciting – and it truly is awe-inspiring to feel the mighty Amazon at our doorstep – there is also the aspect of flooding and loss. We ask that you pray for the many Brazilian people along the River who have already been flooded out of a house, and, too, that God might halt the River from rising more and causing further damage.
We are doing well. The end of our school year is rapidly approaching. Our graduating seniors still have plans to finalize in their upcoming transitions back “home.” Pray that they would rest in Christ amid all the change and that they would live out their faith in God as His children.
On June 11, we are scheduled to return to the US for a quick home assignment-furlough until December 29. We look forward to seeing many of you. Drop us a note if we might come by and visit you during our time stateside.
Thank you once again for your partnership with us to see the last tribe reached for Christ in Brazil!
In Christ’s love,
David & Angie, Aaron, Aleah, Dayton, and Derek
