If you have not figured out, we cannot explain our schedule!!!
Check this out: Thursday we traveled to Curtibia. Friday we spent the day at a Methodist Drug Rehabilitation "camp" with 6 hours travel north of the city. Saturday we left our host families and start the 3rd part of our week by completing a scavenger hunt, with Brazil young adults, with a language barrier and clues written in portiguise...oh yea, it was timed!
Are you asking where the 3 came from? OK, we are too.
HAHA... Our mottow is one hour, one day at a time!
Brazil is extremely flexible and plans are changing as we adjust to an unexpected and unknown itinerary. But other people we meet are full of gracefulness, hospitality, and open hearts. We are eternally grateful.
Our current schedule is Youth service tonight, service in the morning, followed by a BBQ at a host house, relaxing in the botanical gardens for the afternoon, and then young adult service Sunday night.
Monday we will be working with children in the morning and afternoon, and that is subject to change. For those returning, they leave Wednesday afternoon...plans TBD.
Thank you for your prayers, they are needed and useful! We love you all!
Have to prepare for youth service and shuffle luggage...
6 Young Adults from the state of Virginia, on a mission to Brazil to both teach and learn. Week 1 hold VBS for kids in "fresh water projects" and week 2 communicate with similar counterparts, learning and sharing the differences between Virginia and Brazil United Methodist Churches.
