Walking to our parked car in Crackland last evening after a wedding reception of one of the full-time missionaries, I began a conversation with a homeless woman that was using the tinted window of our car like a mirror to fix her hair.

Jeff began a conversation, as well, with her husband and we quickly found out that she desires to go back to the "Yellow House", on Tuesday of this week to gain information about the recuperation farm (where our three interns are serving).

This will be difficult for Edimara and her husband, as he is not ready to take the steps necessary to make life changes.  They may be separated for 9 months or more.


Edimara shared that she once followed Christ and that she badly needed to get off the streets.  Jeff and I prayed for them, encouraged them, and hugged on them.  But the work is the work of the Holy Spirit.  We covet your prayers!

Please pray that Edimara and her husband return to the "Casa Amarela" on Tuesday and that God works a miracle in their lives!

Praying for them and fruit that REMAINS!

Diane and Jeff
