Tomorrow we leave Brazil, so we made the most of our time today. We went to the old Recife prison, which is now what we would call a "mall". After bargaining, and shopping till we dropped; we headed off the the newly bought camp property that Volunteers For Christ has purchased. It was really awesome seeing this large piece of land and knowing that many souls will be saved there in the days to come. The campground was BEAUTIFUL, with bamboo trees and all.
After seeing the land, we headed straight to Kid´s Place to start the teen ministry. It was just a few hours of hanging out and playing games, and a movie and testamonies to follow. Most kids were really receptive, even though no one got up to accept Christ. The seed was planted though, and those teens will have something to think about.
Today was another emotional day since we had to say goodbye to all of our beloved translators. Some were crying, others not; but everyone felt the sadness. Today is the last day for this blog, because tomorrow we will leave to come home in the afternoon. Check-out is at 2 and we will be heading to the airport soon after. It is a long trip ahead of us, so we ask for your prayers for safety, and that we will be able to rest. We look forward to seeing you all again! Goodbye for now!!!
Tchau

How exciting to see this ministry growing in a place where people are hungry for Gods word, his love and redemption. And to see in your minds eye the new camp property and imagining the many souls who will be saved through this great work. It gives me goosebumps!
You, team, have had one emotional week. It has been good. You have had life-changing or personal growing moments that God will use to make you more like him and for his glory. We are proud of all of you.
We all enjoyed reading the updates every day so that we could effectively pray for you and the people of Recife, and to also give praise to God for the work being done in his name.
Our prayers for a safe trip are with you now as you prepare to come home. We look forward to seeing you Sunday at the airport!
God bless. We love you,
The Clays
