A picture is worth a thousand words. There over one hundred pictures here and that will be over one hundered thousand less words I will have to say. This blog is about the life of me, my family, our ministry and scenery. I hope you enjoy the picuters as much as I put them up. Blessings.
David Bailey shares a little of what life was like back in the days when he was a little boy! Along with pictures and facts so you can see!
Pedro Krikati shares the strugles and difficulties in simple way that shows his heart and the beauty that I find in this man of God! Also in both videos we have a small request.
Both videos are in Portuguese but they also have subtitles!
This Children's we have taken a Big HUGE STEP! God has birth in Oli and my heart to take this to a whole new level! This year not only in our tribe are we doing going to be having a Children's Day event but in 4 other Reservations, and 3 States! That leads us to raise support to have toys, snack and and fuel for over 1500 Indian Children. To get the children and leave them again in neighboring villages!
The video has subtitles...if it is not showing then activate it on the pop-up menu in the video on the right hand side. (It probably doesn't work on Ipads.)
Check out our new logo that our Bible Translator, Stan made for us!
I am excited with this Project called "Ação Curumim" meaning Action Indian Children. I went to 2 cities this past weekend to Wake up the brother's in Christ on the importance of how we as the Body of Christ need to take an action part in Missions right in their own country! Many have lit up and been so excited at the idea of getting to take an Active part in helping making Children's day a happy one by taking the Love of God to them! In each city they will be taking a group out and doing an event in a tribe. I will not be in these other tribes on the day as I will be in the one I am in now.
I remember when I was a kid when I went to the US and it was Christmas time and at the place we stayed there was a missionary gathering. We didn't have much money at the time. After the supper they started calling kids names to come get a present. I looked at my dad and asked him what they were doing, (I didn't comprehend very well because of my hearing lose.) I thought to myself, "Are they going to call my name?" I didn't want to get my hopes up so I convinced myself that they didn't even have my name, "By the way who knows me?" I thought. Lo and behold! They called my name! "Denis! Is Denis here?" I was shocked! "ME?!" I didn't show a lot of emotion as I didn't even know how to react as I went up to receive my present with my name written on it!
That experience has forever marked my life. I have no idea who bought it. I will never know until I get to heaven but all I know I was so happy that night. These children too will be receiving presents and will never know who sent it but it will forever mark their life!
I am asking you, if you can do anything from the list of 3 things I will be grateful. You can do one, two or all of them...I know I can never do this on my own. I will never have the money, and time to pull this off by myself. So that is why I am here to allow you to partake in anyway you can through Praying, Announcing and Donating!
Pray that God will give us wisdom on how to receive all these gifts! I have no idea if we receive over 1000 toys how we will get them out to the tribes! We don't have enough vehicles to do all this. Also in orientating the snack and getting enough to feed everyone, not just the kids! We have many people who really want to go out and help and see the event, we need wisdom allowing the right people to go and not to go over board with to many people that it gets out of control.
You can take this video and share it with your friends on Facebook, E-mail and even in your Church!
You can also donate to by sending a donation to my parents or my account with Paypal or Bank of America....
Hey all! Hope your Summer went well or is still going good! We all had a good one and a busy one too! I am just getting a quick video out right before I head out to the tribe with Oli, my wife and my mom! Mom will spend a day or so until dad goes out and leaves my motorcycle and gets the truck. He is letting us take it out to take our buying and visit a few tribes while out there.
We are in the process of doing a Children's Day event. This time we want to do it in 4 different tribes and need help raising up resources for this event. The first part of this event we are out looking for people who knows of people who can and want to help! The next video we are going to do, (Coming Soon!) will be for those who want to represent this Project and take the video and show it to potential contributors! The video is subtitled. We have two months to prepare ourselves!
