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.

 


I was playing some ball with the kids on Tuesday, and noticed my back
was stiff. It got progressively worse, until that night I couldn't
sit or stand without assistance, and then with much pain. I ended up
at the emergency room.

I went first to the public hospital, but after a few frustrating
hours, ended up going from there to a private hospital. They gave me
medicine, and told me I had to get a CAT scan to see if I have a
herniated disc, and what treatment would be needed.

The pain has been extreme. Our support has not been sufficient to
cover additional health costs. Please pray with us, for complete
healing.
