At the end of 2003, we were blessed to meet Edit, a missionary to CLM from Hungary. She was visiting with Bob and Kathy Larson and came to a Bible study that we were having at our house. She shared with us about the ministry at CLM and the following summer, Mike and I led a team from First Friends to Brazil to visit her and meet "her kids." The rest, as they say, is history! :) How awesome it has been to serve with her and a special blessing to have been a part of her wedding this past weekend! She and her fiance, Fabio asked if Mike would perform the wedding ceremony and it was a beautiful blend of Brazilian and American customs. Aline was one of the bridesmaids, as well as Natalia, Luis and Aninha's daughter from Turvo. Thank you for joining with us in praying for God to fill their marriage with His never-ending love.
Our ministry strives to share the love of Jesus with abused, neglected, and abandoned children in southern Brazil.
