Deep Gratitude from Belo Horizonte

Below is a copy of a letter I received from Belo Horizonte on September 8, 2009 that I would like to share with you...

Dear Rev. Abi, members of the UMVIM team and friends at the Arlington United Methodist Church:

On behalf of the Methodist Church in Brazil, the Volunteers in Mission Program and the Shade and Fresh Water network (which I have the privilege of being the National Coordinator), I want to express our deep gratitude for the friendship, partnership and important help that Arlington Untied Methodist Church has offered to us. We want you to know that your help and mission work have left a very strong mark on the life of many children, especially those in the Sao Gabriel community in Belo Horizonte. The leadership of Pastor Abi was very efficient and has touched the heart of this community. We greatly appreciate the involvement of each member of the Arlington UMC. We know that your commitment was not just through the people that came here personally and that many prayed for the work and contributed financially and in other ways so that this mission could go forward. We want to thank each of you. Our prayers are that the Lord will richly bless each of you and your families. We hope we can receive you again in the future.

In His service, Teca Greathouse
National Coordinator VIM

  1. Teca Greathouse is an awesome person. When she says "Abrigada" (Thank You!), you hear it and it goes straight to your heart. She is very sincere. Liana
