As we sift through our memories, share our photos, and tell the stories, we are still realizing the imprint Brazil left on our hearts. Some of us are deciding when we will go back; others of us are wondering if we should have ever returned home. But there's no doubt that the work of Hope Unlimited not only changes the lives of the street kids in Brazil but also those who come to serve.
Maybe you've heard our stories and want to make a plan of action. For you, that may mean giving to Hope Unlimited. It may also mean you will go and serve. But most of all, we hope you will all pray; pray for the kids whose lives are changed, pray for the staff as they continue to seek wisdom in how to best serve the kids, and pray for the financial support that is so greatly needed. Hope Unlimited has many needs but they rely on God and God's people to help meet those needs. Prayerfully consider how you may want to help.
Big Jon, aka Third Jon, aka Smack Jon is leading a team in July. They will be going down to take the Hope kids to a retreat center, where they will have four days to renew their spirits, build unity, and have some good ole fun. Please pray for him and his team as they make the preparations.
We leave you with one last thought: Do you hear that voice? Is God telling you to go? Call the church and get in touch with Jon Leonard to find out the details. You will not be disappointed.
