Good evening everyone.

So, how's it goin' eh??  

Going pretty good, eh.  

We have finished our first week here.  We have almost finished sanding and painting the shutters and window frames of the house.  Even though it was a holiday (labour day) we were working.  

We did take a Zacchaeus moment and enjoyed time with a family at lunch.  It was a very precious time spent with Enaldir and Nair.  They have always been open and inviting to us. 

We have visited most of the families on campus.  It is a blessing to us and a great opportunity to get to know them.  

This evening there was a parent's meeting on communications.  Most of the house parents attended so we were on guard duty for the compound.  

Ross is really enjoying the work, the culture and the people here.   His heart for God and for the people and children here is really shining through.  It is a pleasure to work with him.  (just don't tell him I said that,..  

Tomorrow is the trip into Porto Alegre.   pray for safety for us and that all will go well..

Deus ti abençõe...  God bless you ..
