In 1997 when I moved to Brazil, I began to work in this slum called PTO. After 2 years and an attack on our lives and our new course taken with Raquel in our family... Well I never thought that I would return to this place.
Jeane was invited to preach, and since Raquel is very connected with the church there she was going to take Jeane and Sarah, but I felt a real "peace" about returning. So many years have passed and yet there I was... Not just back at that same church where everything began, but with two women who want to serve Jesus with their whole lives! For Sarah to come from New Salem my home church... That just added to the emotion. It is a very different kind of church service than the typical services you may be accustomed to...
Don't be frightened! The bird was not trying to eat Sarah! Anyway, there is a huge art painted on the wall across from the church that made for a few moments of fun for the girls... Jeane on the picture below thought more about the sheep, not quite sure whether she was trying to rescue it from the giant Eagle, but they were having fun anyway... You get the idea.
Then they ended the night with a group picture out at the wall... For a first day... I think she is being so blessed and being a huge blessing!
