I am at the new hotel in Recife. The city is much different than the village:busy and crazy with activity. The Carnival is still going on and it is a little dangerous. We must keep our purses in front of us at all times and stay together just to void the drunks(like Mardi Gras). We arrived her this afternoon. Settled into the hotel and were blessed with a visit to Kids place for their service. About 24 women and many, many children from the Fovella(slums) attended and praised God. Julie shared graciously about the Samaritan women and then we shared refreshments and asked them to return tomorrow from 9 am to 5 pm. We are nervous and anxious to love on them and have the opportunity to pray and walk through the Fovella. We must not take anything with us and wear no outer jewelry. Please be praying all day long for God to move, for a dome of protection fully encompassing us and reassure our young loved ones who read this we are find and God is sovereign! We have 2 days to share. We found out many of our interrpreters are coming to help us tomorrow and we are excited to see them again!
Thank you so much for praying for us. Megan has a cold and stayed at the hotel today and feels rested. Julie was sickly this evening, pray for rest. Jennis mother in law in the states is in the hospital. Satan will not get us down, just pray for preseverence.
We love you much, God is with us and you!

Tell Julie I love her and miss her. I am praying for all of you. I know God is using you in the lives of the women there and only He knows the long-term impact this trip will have.
Love you all and all the great reports of what God is doing. Kathy
We are praying for all of you and know that where one of you may be struggling or tired that there is always another there to stand in the gap, lift you up, and always be there for encouragement. Do not let Satan steal your joy, keep your eyes focused on God, and love on everyone, esp the ones that may be hardest to love. Lift and encourage Julie, as well as the other leaders on your trip, so they know they are appreciated. Finish with excellence, loving everyone as yourself. Be a source of strength to everyone around you. We will be praying you home! Love, Brandon
I am praying for you. Love, Vickie
