Maria Eduarda - People of Brazil

  This little girl was a faithful visitor of this year's VBS and seemed to greatly enjoy herself the entire week!
   The VBS had a Global Mission's theme and so on the last day there were prizes for people who dressed up as being from another country.  I would say this girl definitely deserved first place!

Mahalia's Prayer

Mahalia enjoys praying, though we can rarely understand more than, "Dear Jesus . . . . AMEN!" (Of course, she prounces, "Amen" just like she hears the Brazilians in church) :)

Riverman - Postcard from Brazil

      These narrow canoes scare me.  I don't understand how these fishermen stay upright, but they seem to be perfectly comfortable while fishing all day!

      In our area, fishing is one of the larger industries and many people live only on what income they can get from the day's catch.
