Trip to Brazil February 2024
Some have asked about my trip. Here are a few photos and a brief report.
I had the opportunity to spend 8 days in the Amazon region of Brazil. I have been traveling to the area for the past 20 years or so and I now have some good friends there. We rented a riverboat and made a visit to a small village on the Arapiuns River. We go there to share the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ – telling about His love and forgiveness for sin. I tell them the same message each one of us needs to hear, that salvation is available to every one of us.
The boat we stayed on.
Getting ready to fry eggs for breakfast.
We slept in hammocks on the boat.

A typical meal. Beans and rice, along with beef or chicken.
This guy landed on our boat while we were at the dock.
Our group: 30 some Brazilians from the city and one North American.
We spent some time in a nearby indigenous village.
Many in that village make handcrafts to sell.
A baptism for 2 young ladies.
A cook stove at one home.
A typical house in the Amazon.
I had the opportunity to preach. I told them that Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life.
With 2 friends who are English teachers. One had requested a US flag.
4 little friends along on the trip.
I really enjoy the scenery on the river.
