Greetings friends and family,
Wow! what a week. We have been going, going, going... The Brazilian people have welcomed us with open arms and continue to do so. Our class is going very well. We have many videos to post to youtube, but it's just finding the time to do so. We have tried to arrange a time each day for me to update the blog, so hopefully, now that we are in more of a routine the updates will be more consistent. Thank you for your continued prayers. So, now that we have been in class about a week we are starting to really see some results. Our class begins at 8:30am and ends at 4:30pm Tuesday through Friday and half day on Saturday. By Popular demand we have started an additional class that meets Tuesday and Thursday nights and Saturday mornings. People in both classes who had no English experience are beginning to have basic English conversations with the teachers. We even had one student, who has had some English experience, act out a skit of bringing someone to salvation in English. We have all of the students giving a very brief testimony. We are planning on uploading all of them to youtube soon. I will have a link on the blog to view them. Outside of the class, God has also been at work creating relationships with many pastors, church leaders, missionaries and ministries. There is a very huge need for missionaries here, short and long term. The people are after Gods heart. As the word of the Lord says, They will know us by our love for eachother, and just like at valley, these people get it. I will try to post pictures within the blogs most of the time, but just know that the pictures in our album are in Chronological order, or at least close, so hopefully they will tell a story too. We have really seen God move during our stay. Our team has continued to grow closer and closer. Opening each day with a morning devotion, testimony, or teaching. We love all of you. Thank you again for all of your prayers and support while we are away. In his Name

TAM Airlines Flight JJ3054 Tragedy!
On Tuesday Night, July 17, 2007 we received news of an Airplane crash that occured at an airport in Sao Paulo, Brazil. This Crash is a very tragic event with over 200 people killed. As a team, we are all saddened by this news and would like to extend our prayers and condolences to Brazil and those families and friends affected by this event. All of the team members are safe. This tragedy took place at a domestic airport, not at the international one that we will use. Please keep us in your prayers.
