Hello everyone,
(Sorry we haven't been updating, we haven't had internet connection until now)
We just want update you on the mission trip to Brazil. We have safely made it to Brazil at 9:30 on Saturday morning, praise God! We relaxed at the hotel for the afternoon to recooperate from our previous travels. At 6:00 PM we had a team meeting, followed by a visit to the camp facilities that we will be working at all next week. We had an amazing worship service with the Brazilian translaters and friends. Near the conclusion of our visit, we "reenacted" John 13, which teaches us to be humble, and to have a servent's heart. So we washed the feet of the new staff members at the camp, and prayed for them. Jesus Christ humbled Himself before His disciples, and washed their feet. We should also do this for one another.

Today we will be going to the favellas, or the slums. Please pray for our safty.
Also, please continue to pray for all the volunteers, missionaries, staff members at the camp, and please pray for our team. But, most of all please pray that God will be glorifed this week.
Thanks so much for your prayers, we love and miss you!! We'll keep you updated!

So excited to know you are there without incident! God is good!
We are praying today for your safety to & from the favels as well as your time spent there. We are praying for each child that you will come in contact with today – that they would be encouraged & excited about their “Journey to Camp”

We are praying for you. Praise God that you arrived there safely. We can only imagine the faces of the kids that will be at the camp, and we are praying that God goes before you and opens the hearts of those dear ones. How exciting to see what he has in store for you this week! (With a bow), "enjoy your meal". Hugs to all.
