I am the vine; you are the branches....


Nothing is more beautiful than a new life in Christ!  Christ tells us that when we ask it will be done....

The Word says, "Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples."  John 15:4-8

Several years ago we met Getulio and had the privilege to share the gospel with him.  We see him several times a year and enjoy his friendship!


Getulio moved to Rio for work with his parents 46 years ago.  His father has passed away now and his mother has returned to her home in the north.  He lives alone and works almost every day.  Last week we saw him again and brought him a framed photo we had taken a few years ago with him and his horse chariot, Hannah, Jeff and I.

As we work to further God's kingdom here in Brazil, we ask you to pray for Getulio.  That he would trust in Christ alone.

Always prepared to share of the hope we have in Christ,

Diane and Jeff
