Faith in the Amazon: Ralph Poulson

From the remote jungles of the Amazon to the classrooms of a seminary in Natal, Brazil, Ralph and Margie Poulson’s story is one of faith, perseverance, and unwavering commitment to the gospel.

On this week’s episode of Cloud of Witnesses, we hear the inspiring story of missionary Ralph Poulson. Alongside his wife, Margie, Ralph dedicated his life to church planting among unreached tribes in the Amazon, serving with ABWE in Brazil. Their journey took them from the Port of Two Brothers deep in the jungle to Benjamin Constant and, ultimately, to leading a seminary in Natal, Brazil. Join us as we explore their incredible legacy of faith and service.
