Brazil Missions Trip ‘08

News updates of the ministry and the adventure!

Back at the Forans

Well well, I’m back here at the Forans for my last couple days in Brasil.  This has been an amazing trip and I thank God for all I’ve gotten to do and learn.

My last couple days at camp I basically painted and painted and painted.   We usually woke up around 8 or 9 in the morning, went up to the house for breakfast, then started work.  We would work until about 5 or 6 in the evening.  After dinner, we would usually sit around and watch Brasilian TV, or play music.

The internet and phone there basically didn’t work the hole time I was there so…

Every morning I would try to wake up a little earlier so I could have some devotional time.  Most of the time, I would just sit out in the hammock in front of the dorm where we stayed, but the last morning that I was there, I went down to the lake on the dock and had my devos down there.  It was really cool.  The day was beautiful and sunny, and in the forest/jungle that was on the other side of the lake, I could here animals and birds making noises like I’v only heard on the Discovery Channel.

Today, I painted a wall on the side of the house here at the Forans.  Before I left to go to camp, I had scraped the wall of all the loose paint.  After I finished painting, Mr. Graham and I cut down part of a tree that was leaning over the house and we dragged it up the hill behind his house and cut it up.

Tomorrow I think I’m going to the mall with Mrs. Renee, so that should be fun.  I’m hoping to find some decently priced indoor soccer shoes.
