Danny Meyer brought a team to come and help us during our first year in Brazil. Since then he has come back once or twice every year, and became a mentor to me, and to our team. Things got even better when his wife Penny started to come. Last year they sent their son Christopher to Altamira as a full-time missionary.

One of Danny’s main messages throughout the years is: “Pace yourselves. Take one rest day per week. This is a marathon, not a sprint.” I know I speak for all our Brazilian and foreign team when I say that we are so grateful that God sent Danny and Penny to help us along the way.

“Thank you Danny and Penny.”
