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 don’t know what happened to my last post, it just isn’t there. I was almost asleep at the keyboard, so maybe it got posted on someone else’s blog, I don’t know. Anyway, I wanted to share the good news. The doctor had told us that Luciene had hepatitis, and we needed to do the test to determine if it was Hepatitis A, B, or C.

We asked a lot of people to pray, and Luciene’s pain subsided, something that all the heavy-duty medicine at the hospital didn’t do. We continued to pray for complete healing. On Wed. we did the exams to determine what kind of Hepatitis it was, and they all came back negative! We will return in a month and redo some of the tests, to confirm that she was healed, and to make sure that the liver is no longer irritated.

Luciene is now practicing to put on a presentation for “Day of the Child” which we are going to celebrate in our church this Saturday.

Thanks so much to all of you that prayed for us, we have felt your prayers, and we have been much encouraged.
