...and we made it to Itu!


we landed at 8:30 in the Sao Paulo airport! with the total of 10 hours of sleep over the previous 3 nights, we were dead when we arrived on Brazilian soil! we went straight to bed after we arrived, and naped for 4 hours!
the church planned a welcoming party for us last night, and it was so much fun! we feel so encouraged and supported by the people here!


today we spent several hours trying to unpack our bags and get a little more settled in. unfortunately in the process, Mark twisted his back wrong, and has been in bed-rest for the past few hours. Please pray for his healing, so he can start his portuguese lessons and going to the gym with all the guys!

we miss you, Ohio.
we miss you, Texas (and have for 3 years now)

looking up,

ali and mark
