Jerry's Story - July 2008
Jerry Wolfe The highlights of the voyage along the Amazon were the people and their lives. Visiting floating homes gave incite into the hard life along the river living day to day, depending upon fishing or farming. Two of the many visits are as follows: One home had three cousins living together and after explaining the gospel via the E-Cube; all three accepted Christ. What a joy to experience.
The entire trip was a wonderful experience and encouraging to see Christians along the river, obviously some had come before us and planted seeds. A concern is the many unsaved, those who say WAIT, some who say "I'm not good enough - drink and smoke"; so we must continue or prayer and evangelism efforts.
God worked in a wonderful way the entire week, drawing the team together, leading us to specific homes or places to show folks how to receive Christ, good health, safety, excellent "care and feeding" from our hosts and the wonderful fellowship with our "brothers in Christ". Our lives will not be the same after this trip. A special THANK YOU to Derek and those who created the opportunity to minister to the Brazilian people along the Amazon.
