Our missionaries, Ben and Kristiana Buckman, are in need of help for their cross-country move.
They currently live in Fortaleza, but are moving to Rondônia Brazil to be more accessible for the indigenous tribes that they work with. Grace Church has created a special collection to help with their moving expenses. The next few weeks, there will be special envelopes in the church pews for you to help. Checks can be made out to “Grace Church” with “Buckman Travel Expenses” in the memo.
