I got this email from Chris today:
"This past Sunday, Duda handed me a letter he wanted me to translate for you all. Here it is:
'Beloved brothers and sisters, comrades in the faith…peace be with you all!
God has given comfort to our hearts. He has carried us in His arms. For this reason, we are strong and His mercy has filled our lives. Our daughter, Bianca is in the Kingdom of Heaven with our Father. There, she is in a much better place and we know that one day we will join her in worshiping and honoring our God together. Your prayers have given us much strength. We are thankful for you all! God bless each of you. Please read and think about 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18. Family of Carlos Eduardo (Duda), Branca, and Brenda Vilas Boas'
Email: dudavilasboas@yahoo.com.br (if you would like to send them an email, you can say something like: “Thanks for your email. We will continue praying for you. God bless.” Here it is in Portuguese that you can cut and paste: Obrigado pela sua e-mail. Nós continuaremos orar por vocês. Deus abençoe "
