Yesterday we went out and did a distribution project.
People here are suffering from lack of food because it has rained so much
and lots of their rice and corn has died.
So, we were working with BGR to distribute some seed.
We had some problems, but over all it was a good experience!
 |
| Organizing some of the seed before we left. |
 |
| The corn seed in the back of our car. We also had a trailer full of seed. |
 |
| Different kinds of veggies. (If you can't read portuguese then you won't be able to understand what the bags say! :)) |
 |
| Lots of the people are living in tents because their houses were washed away. |
 |
| Some of the tents. |
 |
| The rice seed. |
 |
| This is right when we got there....not many people. |
 |
| A hour or two after we got there. |
 |
| A couple more hours after that. |
 |
| More and More... |
 |
| They just kept on coming... |
 |
| Right before we started distributing... |
Then we start...
 |
| This is what it looked like from a far off distance... |
Some sweet faces!
After some misunderstandings of who gets seed and who does not,
we got in the car and drove home.
Here are some sights of coming home.
Some of these rice fields have a good crop of rice,
yet many have been flooded to the point the rice has died.
It all depends on when you plant the seed.
 |
| Imagine living in this house! |
Please pray for this area to receive the Gosple message openly
and that they will grown in their relationship with the Lord.
Hugs,
Meg
