Samuel and Tracy Recalde REACHING TRIBAL PEOPLE FOR CHRIST Dear Friends, 
We want to thank you very much for your support! We really appreciate your help and Prayers!
We Praise the Lord for his strength and love that He showers on us daily as we seek to faithfully carry out the responsibilities that He has given to us!
We are getting excited as it is getting close to time for us to go to the U.S.A. for our time of home assignment (furlough).
In our last letter, we asked you to Please Pray for us, as we have a time of home assignment in the U.S.A. coming up the first of next year 2010…
As we mentioned in our last letter, One of our reasons that we have decided to take a furlough, is for Samuel to get his green card. Basically a green card is an immigration visa. What Samuel has right now is a tourist visa which is very limited.
After talking it over with our New Tribes Mission in Paraguay leadership, they gave us their complete approval and support in this, so we went ahead and put in the petition for a green card for Samuel at the American Embassy here in Asuncion. We will finish the process upon arrival in the U.S.A.
We plan to fly out of Asuncion the first week in December and hope to be with our kids and Grandbabies in Iowa for Christmas.
Please pray for our kids, Kristina and Nathan as they adjust to living in the U.S.A. for awhile and for a smooth transition into the school system there.
We look forward to visiting you, our supporters and co-workers and giving a report of our work amongst the Tribal People of Paraguay in your Church!
Please Pray concerning the Church leadership out at the Colony, Tava Amboae. Pray for Spiritual maturity for the Tribal leaders in our absence.
Praise God, the believers are growing Spiritually and the Church attendance has increased greatly. Pray for Mamila, as she will continue to teach the Saturday ladies Bible study classes on her own.
Please Pray especially for Loli, the young Tribal lady who will be teaching the children’s Sunday school class. Loli has been a wonderful helper and co-teacher with Tracy since the beginning and we have confidence that she will do wonderfully in teaching the children on her own now.
Please Pray for more laborers for the work here in Paraguay. There are still many who have not heard and much that still needs to be done!
Thank you very much for Praying for us and for helping us in our work here amongst the Ava Pãi Tribal People!
In Christ’s Service,
Samuel, Tracy and Family
After the Saturday ladies meeting at the Indian Colony, we always have a time of Prayer requests and I (Tracy) wanted to share some of them with you so that you can know how to Pray better for our Tribal sisters.
Dear Friends, Many of you will remember Isidora. Back in July, we asked you to Pray for her because three of her grown daughters had beaten her up so badly.
Thank you very much for Praying for Isidora! Today we went to Gregorio and Isidora’s house after church and she is doing much better. Her hand is still swollen and she said her back still hurts, but she is able to walk without limping now.
It is Winter here now! Please Pray for the Tribal children, as they really suffer during these cold months! They don’t have many, if any blankets and a lot of them don’t even own a jacket or sweater. They usually huddle around a fire to keep warm, especially at night. In the daytime the sun usually comes out for awhile and they can play outside to get warmed up. Tracy has started teaching the Tribal children Sunday school . We have so many children who come to church on Sundays that we decided Sunday school would be a good idea and the children just LOVE it! Thank you for Praying!!
