Amazing Answer to Prayer

Somewhere nestled in the jungle of Brazil along the Amazon River was a little mission school that was basically unconnected to the rest of the world by the internet. This past weekend through an amazing answer to prayer, God suddenly changed their situation and the life of at least one associate missionary living there. Puraquequara now has WIRELESS HIGHSPEED (for us) INTERNET and I can access it from my house! For the past four months, I've only been able to get online about every other week or so and then just to check my email, because most web pages took so long to load. If it was a nice, sunny day and I took my laptop close to the river, sometimes I could download all my emails. But one day even though the sun was shining it took me 3-4 hours just to get to my college website and when I tried to register for a summer class I needed, the internet connection failed and all was lost. Thankfully those days of internet frustration now seem to be past us :) The way I would update this blog was to send the written text in an email to my brother Josh and he would post it for me from a better internet connection in the USA. So a big thanks to Josh for posting all my blog updates until now! Maybe it was the begining of your career as an international computer consultant or something like that... And another big thanks to the great team of guys here at the school who worked hard to install the wireless internet system for everyone. Last of all, but certainly not least, a huge thank you to the company who donated many thousands of dollars worth of equipment to make the internet possible at this school in the Amazon jungle. Due to my previous lack of internet access, I have a backlog of blog posting, so please forgive me if you get tired of seeing a bunch new posts in the next few weeks I have left in Brazil...
