So I can not even put into words how beautiful the view is in this incredible country. I wake every morning at the foothills of a massive towering mountain. I am so blessed. The air is so fresh and crisp here. We are 3,300 feet above sea level and it feels good 🙂
The journey getting to this point has been quite a rollercoaster. From spending an entire day in the Atlanta airport, to sleeping on the cold airport floor, to missing our flight and getting to spend a free night at a nice hotel it has been WILD. But God has blessed us in incredible ways throughout this journey. We have seen His hand in everything we’ve been doing.
As far as my team… i love them! We are all so incredibly different but we have already become a close knit family One of my favorite memories so far: The second night we were here in Brasil we decided we needed a good solid dance party. And if you know me you know I need those to survive, its practically oxygen to me. Armed with speakers and ipod we went up on the roof, turned on some Beyonce and danced. It lasted a good bit until we had worn ourselves out to the point where all we could do was turn on some Dave Barnes and have deep conversation. We are planning on getting our sleeping bags and sleeping under the stars tonight on the roof. And if it goes like i would want it to there will be more dancing.
Friends and family, i miss you all so much! Please keep my team and I in your prayers. We are doing lots of manual labor so I am planning on being really ripped when I get home! haha.
God has been teaching me so much, like what true humility looks like and how expectations can be oh so deadly. Also He taught me that sometimes when there are bugs in your pasta, ya just have to eat it. Yum.
Well my internet time is about up so untill next week! Peace out.
