A Note from the Mackeys


We have safely arrived in Brazil. We serve such a mighty God! I just want to say that you all are INCREDIBLE! You are the best team that we have ever been a part of. Thank you for all your prayers; God answered everything that we asked for and beyond. We made all of our flights just fine and still cannot believe that when we arrived in Miami at gate J7, our connecting flight to Brazil left out of gate J8! (If you have ever traveled overseas, this is unheard of.) Upon arriving to Brazil we went through immigration just fine, and when we went to claim our bags for customs check. . . . they looked at our passports and waved us through with no questions or even touching a bag!! After 20+ hours of traveling we arrived with ALL of our luggage and were treated to a typical Brazilian meal. We are now still settling into our apartment at the New Tribes Mission base where we have already begun Portuguese study.

In the next few days we will be adding to our website a ton of pictures and even a short clip of our drive into Vianapolis. http://web.mac.com/chris_ginger

Thank you all again for your prayers and we will continue to keep you up to date with the events of our lives and what God is going to be doing.
