Carnival

This weekend is to be a pretty wild time in Brazil; Carnival, the biggest party on the planet. EVERY thing shuts down here over the next few days. So, the church is taking the opportunity to have a fun time of fellowship, teaching, and worship together. Tomorrow morning at 5 AM we will be leaving from the church in a 8 car caravan up to the northern part of Sao Paulo state were a group of about 400 of us will be together in a school that has been rented out for the event. Sleeping in the school, eating in the school, having our gatherings in the school... should be a crazy time.

Ali and I are responsible for the youth specific part of the program. We expect about 80 participants more or less. We will be using the same themes and some of the same classes as we did in the camp as it will be all new participants. We were blessed to be able to get all but one of the team members (pictured here in talent show night) we had for camp back to help with this event! Please pray that God will use this effort as he did the last. And thanks for your prayers, it makes all the difference in the world! Okay, off to grab the precious little sleep I can.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Thank you guys for posting pictures! I haven't gotten on here much recently, not because of a lack of interest but rather because of a lack of internet access. I am praying for you and your work in Itu. Estou com saudades! bjos
