His other brother is in jail. A couple of weeks ago killers came for him. His family wanted to send him to another state to live with his relatives, but Clyde and Kelsie also offered to help. They live and work at church planting among the remote Brazilian river people for part of the year, and in a town along the Trans-Amazon for part of the year.
Clyde and Kelsie lived here in Marabá with us for a year, so many of the youth in our church remember them. Now they are sending photos of some of joys of remote, church-planting, missionary work. Last night they skyped our house. Many youth were here for a farewell bonfire for our girls. They all gathered around the computer and talked and joked for about 40 minutes!
The Lord is gathering more workers for His harvest. Francisco is out there training. The rest of the youth with they were with him.
