Armed with chocolate spiderman cookies, and gifts that Raquel was able to obtain as donations for ministry, we were able to bless the children. Its funny, I know it seems that we are always giving things to these children, but for a long time we had nothing to give...
God has brought people to be interested in Waterfall in a way like I've personally never seen before. Just a tiny village of regular folks. Why such interest?
If you thought I would offer an answer here, well, I'm not even going to try. It is a surprise to me, but God loves these people and these children, and this place that seemed forgotten is HIS place. 
The Joy for the simple things... I've worried whether we are "spoiling" the children too much and wonder if they will grow to just "expect" gifts. Who can say, but if we receive gifts to give, it would be a waste to not give.
It appears that I will be leaving Brazil indefinitely after July. There are many reasons why, but I would ask for you to be praying for Waterfall, that God would not let the work there die.

my heart is heavy as i look at these faces i remember! take God for what He is... generous and faithful. sometimes He does not provide us with the explanations we anticipate but gives us opportunity to accept Him just by faith!
love and hugs
