A view from Dona Marta with the Christ Statue in the back

The Rio Trio at the Michael Jackson Mosaic

Yesterday we ventured out to Dona Marta, a nearby community, with the Rio Trio.  This community is the location of a Michael Jackson statue and Mosaic that were constructed there after his death.  Michael had performed and filmed a music video there called, "They Don't Really Care About Us."

While we were in Dona Marta, I was able to reconnect with Cleber, a young boy we had met there last month.  He sells Michael Jackson souvenirs at the statue.  During our conversation, he told me he continues to go to church, but didn't want to have anything to do with the EvangeCube or Jesus.  Pray for Cleber. 

In the evening, we were blessed to go to two bible studies in Caju.  The women studied about being obedient to Christ.  When we make bad choices in our life, we are not following Christ.  The verse in Proverbs 14:12 says, "There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death."  We enjoyed excellent time in prayer, study and fellowship with this amazing body of believers.

We were also able to visit a family with a 2-month old baby.  What a blessing to spend time with this wonderful family of Christ!

Serving with love and loving those we serve,

Diane, Jeff and the Rio Trio
