🇺🇸: This Friday, GEM concluded its first mission trip of 2026 aboard the Pantavida boat! ✝️
Alongside our organization’s leader, Carl King, a group of Brazilians had the privilege of navigating the Paraguay River, reaching communities in Alto Paraguai.
They were intense days of service, bringing care, compassion, and healing, both for the body and the soul.
We move forward with grateful hearts for everything we experienced and for every life touched along the way.
