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 just read an interesting article about the Amazon at the LA Times site. I got the link from Rush Limbaugh. It is about the burning in the Amazon, and about the myth that the Amazon is the Lungs of the world. It is very interesting, and it can also help understand why the families asthma gets agitated.
