My favorite thing about Brazil so far is...

I asked the Team to complete that sentence and here is what they said complete with pictures...

Sarah says...

How the teamwork between both the Brazilians and the Americans is strong and seamless. Both groups embrace each other and work well together to complete the job

Cori says...

My favorite thing about the trip so far is getting to stay with a host family that loves God and treats us like their own family. Communicating with them and learning about each others cultures has been a blast. I am humbled and loving every second in Brasil ❤️

Joia says...

My favorite thing about Brazil is the welcoming into the family, community of people. My most emotional moment was hearing Tarcísio and then my host dad Dameio say that is is a blessing to receive us. Friendship, hospitality, oneness in God.

Karen says...

My favorite thing about Brasil so far is the people!  My host family has been very kind and welcoming since I stepped out of the van into their living arms!! They have made feel a part of their family and I feel that God placed me right where I was supposed to be!!!!

Sharla says...

My favorite thing about Brazil is being a part of God's Blessings.  To watch  a family like the Curingas (Tarcisio) be so obedient to God's commands and do it without thought.  It's an impression to me.

Amy says...

My favorite thing so far is having wonderful conversations with the kids. Pedro has a big smile and a bigger heart.

John says...

My favorite part of the trip so far is interacting with the VBS kids. How loving and appreciative they are to the time and gifts they are receiving.

Daniella says...

My favorite part was hearing the story of how this whole ministry started while sitting in one part of the building already so great and then working in the other part the next day which is yet to come! The heart of Fatima and Tarcisio is beautiful and strong. 

Tom says...

My favorite part so far is the spontaneous gatherings of people from the church and neighborhoods getting together for fun and laughter.  Being that Pianco is a small town and people live close there are lots of opportunities for gathering and playing.

So...as you can see all is well here. We are truly experiencing Luke 13.29...

People will come from east and west and north and south, and will take their places at the feast in the kingdom of God.

Keep praying for us and rejoice with us in what God is doing here!
