Our
support ofthe McKinnon family helps to enable them to continue
their missionary work in Brazil. Simone and Matthew McKinnon
teach at the Pan American Christian Academy (PACA) which is a
school for the children of missionaries. They also work in their
community to further educate the local people and bring the love
and life of God into their lives.
They have four young sons -the newest (Nolan)
arrived in May, 2000. As the niece and nephew of a founding New
Hope family (and children of missionaries) the McKinnons hold
a special place in our hearts.
They visited with our congregation
in the early part of 1999, when they were in the United States for
a year. It was heartwarming to hear their stories and feel their
deep commitment to a life in Christ. We hear from them about every
month through e-mails and enjoy their news about their children
and their prayer concerns. April, 2001 news.
