On the 28th of February 2001, Buck and Luciene moved to the Amazon Basin of Brazil. We lived in Macapá, right on the equator. Why would a web designer give up his career and take his family from their comfortable life in Columbus, Ohio, USA, to live on the Amazon River? We came with a vision to save the Amazon, to tell people about Jesus, and plant a Vineyard church. We have planted a church, and we are turning it over to the national leaders, heading back to the States in Sept. 2009.

 
My eyes are clearing, though they are still red. God has been so good to us. He has provided everything that we need. I have to sit down and write about all the blessings. Man, we can really tell that people are praying. We just heard from the rental place, they said we will be able to stay until October. That is a huge answer to prayer. A dear friend in Columbus sent a very generous gift that has enabled us to begin the process to build our own house. An architect friend of ours did up some plans, and they are really great. We should have the permission to build from the government in about a month or so.

Thanks so much to each of you that pray for us regularly! We really truly appreciate it! Eduardo Buck and Luciene
