www.hsmbrazil.com He has been posting there daily from his iphone app as we have not been able to log on here????

We did received our bags last night - just in time to have clothes for church! (by the way - -thanks for the clothes some of you gathered at the last minute – some were packed in the 3 bags we did receive - we have been wearing them until now - we promise to wash & return them to the Brazilians before we leave!!)
After church last night we had a fashion show with the Brazilian girls & a few american girls wearing clothes they have made with the sewing machines and fabric we brought 2 years ago! A woman has been helping then who owns a store in Caruaru - a large clothing manufacturing city about 2 hrs away.
She brought additional clothes and accessories to finish "the look"....I will get to meet with her today and hear about the plans for all of this - SO EXCITING!!!!!!
I heard a few of the girls from our team negotiating prices last night!
Today we are going to the beach with 80 teens & all kinds of beach games. We will have a BBQ and make S'mores!!!!
Tonight is movie night with popcorn and Rice Krispie treats - yes our bags were packed with 100 bags of marshmallows!!! - a luxury in Brazil.
….and to top it all off.... our fearless leader----- now known as Pastor David Hollandand his very able assistant Kristy Harden have spiritual applications for all of these fun activities! We are excited to learn how Jesus and marshmallows work together for the Kingdom of God!
Please pray for our time with these teens today - please pray they will feel the freedom to tell us "their story" and feel safe to ask any questions they might have about what we have been teaching each day.
Blessing to each of you!
