Trip to Brazil
Hi, Guys. This past month we were able to travel to Brazil for the celebration of "Indigenous Day" on April 19th. We traveled with the Massey family and a Brazilian missionary who works here in Bolivia. Our purpose in going was to observe and learn more about contextualization in indigenous training ministries because of the need we see for a training center here in Bolivia and the hope we have that we will be a part of something like this in the future. The trip was physically trying, but we all enjoyed our time with the people there. All the kids and some of us adults got painted, feathered and adorned for the celebration and, as Bubba Massey put it, were touched by the "commonality of the faith" regardless of culture.
