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.

 
God protected us once again. I was taking the girls to school, and as I got to the end of our street, the steering broke, and the car went all crazy. Thank God, that once again, it happened on our street, and not on the main road. I just can't believe how good God has been. I think that is three times that the steering broke like that. And three times God has kept us from serious harm.

The motor has to be fixed too, it is throwing oil out all over the place. The tire has a huge hole all the way through it, I got a flat yesterday on the way to pick the girls up from school, they were almost the last ones to be picked up. Sometimes I just don't even know what to do with the car right now. Lord, please provide us with a new car!
