ICOS - Parker Goodbye

The church here had a goodbye for the Parker family before they left to return to the United States. Stacey has been a major part of the work with the children of the church so we had the kids make little cards of thanks to them for the work that they have done here. Travis also gave a blessing to their family and presented them with a picture of the church members as a remembrance of Brazil and their time here and the people that they have helped come to the Lord. It was a hard day to say goodbye but we saw how they were loved by the people here and how much they touched peoples lives. We will miss them, the kids, Stacey and Keith but we know God has big plans for them back home in the U.S. and He used them here for much good. Thank you Parker's for your help here and we pray all the greatest for your new life back in the States. Please be in prayer for this family as they begin a new life, for the ease of transition and for them as they look for work, a home and a church family.
