The Northwest… beginning furlough
The Midnight Cry…
Please scroll down and find our most recent prayer letter just below the description of this photo. We have also added new photos in the album.
Unless you live in a very religious country like Brazil, you probably will never have this happen to you. During our current lockdown and 8pm curfew, a man drove around on his motorcycle at 2am with a loud speaker creating a little panic while waking people from their sleep. After a trumpet sound, the announcement said, “The end times are at hand. Every human being is free, but this vaccine is not safe.” This came on the very day they began vaccinating people in our city. He drove by our house and only Josiah woke up. The rest of us just slept right through it! You can watch a video someone took HERE. I am glad someday we will hear the trumpet sound, and we will be caught up with Him in the clouds!

Have you seen the video we put out while on furlough earlier this year? If not, you can watch it below. The video presentation describes the burden that God has given us and will show you some pictures of our work here in Brazil.

Traveling the US
We have now been in the US for eight weeks and have traveled well over 8,000 miles. Time is flying by and we are trying to take advantage of our time here. With exception of a little hiccup in the AC on the van, things have gone very well. This week we spent time in Tennessee at our home church and also with family.
Shortly after arriving in the US we headed out west and had meetings in Idaho, Washington, California, Arizona, Texas, and Alabama. We have been in over 15 different churches and have about 20 more scheduled.
Next week we will be in Illinois with Amanda”s family. The boys and I have not seen some of the family for over seven years. We hope to take advantage of the time we are there during the week.
Though we have been enjoying time with friends and family, work continues! We have been in touch with online casino many people in Brazil as well as working on different projects. An opportunity came up to help a friend in Nepal with some work. Progress has also been made on a new website housing a Spanish Bible. In all of this we still continue to fulfill our regular duties sending out the monthly publication, updating websites, and corresponding with many people.
Thank you so much for praying for us while we are traveling. Please continue! Soon we hit the east side from New Hampshire to Florida. Pray for safety in travel and a vehicle that continues running well.
New Prayer Card
Here is a look at our new prayer card. We will be giving them out while on furlough. Be sure to pick one up if we are at your church. We are looking forward to being in most of our supporting churches over the next four months.

Heading Home
PRESENT SITUATION
Very quickly I would like to catch you up to date on what is going on with us over the next few days so that you all can continue to pray for us. I have not sent out a prayer letter this month. Things have been busy, so I decided just to post on the blog which would simplify things for this month. Everything has worked out very well so far.
– Our belongings have been split up. We allowed some friends to use some of our furniture over the next few months while we are in the US. The remainder of our belongings have been stored in a safe location.
– We have turned in the keys to the house, cared for the final repairs to be made, and are working on shutting off the internet, water and electric.
– Tomorrow we begin our journey! We catch a bus and begin about a 52 hour trip. We will be with Amanda’s parents by Thursday evening if all works out as planned. Please pray things go smoothly. Our last attempt at international travel from this area was not great, so we are praying things go smoothly this time.
PAST ANSWERS TO PRAYER
In my last post I asked you to pray for two specific things. First, a friend who was to testify about the work in the Indian tribes. Thank you for praying. Those who had accused him went in and removed their accusations. The case has now been filed and set to rest. Praise the Lord!
The second prayer request was for our trip to an Indian tribe a few weeks ago. The Lord closed the doors for us and we were not able to go into the tribe. Please pray that these doors will be opened for us in the near future. Several missionaries have recently left the area. We are not sure what all is going on, but we believe the Lord has directed us to this region. Please keep praying!
