September 10th, the Pantavida sailed north on the Paraguay River, headed to Port Indio. Several stops along the way left school children with soccer balls, new toothbrushes, and stories from the Bible. Twenty of these children prayed to receive Jesus into their lives for the first time. Adults were left with a new pair of sunglasses, so necessary along the river, sweet little gifts like lotion or soap, and very importantly, medicines for what ails their families.

Thought for Today
Security
Those who can see God's hand in everything can best leave everything in God's hand.
Determination
Stand for something - or you'll fall for anything.
Values
It has been said that a smile adds a lot to your face value.
Wisdom
God gave us two ears and only one mouth, which indicates we should listen twice as much as we talk.

Progress

he never makes any progress until he sticks his neck out.
Opportunities
Great opportunities come to those who make the most of the small ones.
Happiness
I have learned that keeping the focus on others is the key to a happy and fulfilling life.
