We´re still alive

Hey everybody,
So, it has been a while since we have posted anything. We just wanted to give you all assurance that no news is because we have been too busy hanging out with the ´rents and travelling. Andrea so inteligently (forgettfully) left the camera in Londrina when we left for our travels, but we will post some pictures from the camera of marg and jim when we return to Londrina.

We are here in Sapiranga, Brazil - google it, see if you can find it, we dare you! - for two weeks in total. This is where Michael lived when he first came to Brazil. Everyone here is so glad to have Michael back, although a few of the girls are disappointed to see his beautiful new wife with him. I was so impressed to hear what a huge impact michael made on the community here, encouraging them to grow in their relationships with God and to be free in it. It is often the first thing people tell me when I meet them. There are a lot of youth that I can just tell by looking at them that they respect Michael so much. What a great guy - really God has given him gifts in the area of relationships and he runs with it.

The church here is great. God is showing me a whole new side of Him. I plan to come back changed - letting more of God´s Spirit that is inside of me free to do cool things.

til soon - we´ll be back on monday the 20th.

We have been missing the email communication.
