thursday

it~s our last day in londrina.  feels a bit bittersweet.  we had high hopes of waking up early and catching breakfast at a farmer~s market but a monsoon rolled through in the wee hours and still raged when we awoke.  so we rolled over and extended our sleep a bit before convening for breakfast at the buffet.  slow is good, too.  heather asked me to write yesterday~s blog post on the global x site so here~s the link if you are interested:

today we lunched at a capela member~s house.  allesandra.  she~s amazing.  her heart overflows with love.  she truly understands the concept of overflowing jesus~love.  she prepared a brazilian feast and we brought drinks and dessert from the bakery down the road.  it was a quick lunch as three of our group members have meetings at the church and two others were getting set up to film allesandra~s testimony.  i learned a little more about graciousness and hospitality from our brazilian sister. 

God is really refreshing me this week.  I am basking in his love and thriving on time in the Word.  I~ve really enjoyed getting to know my teammates and living in Londrina for the week.

Tomorrow we head for a whirlwind tour of Rio.  Please pray for good weather in Rio tomorrow and Saturday!
