Dress up time. David and Tucker were having a blast dancing around to get psyched up for when the Infantil, our PreK through Kindergarteners, and the Primeiro Anos, our First Graders, arrive for dress up time. The littles love this so much. I think these two do too. I’ll spare y’all the video of them... Continue Reading →
Everyone is Legal
Not too much to report this week serving. Pretty much a normal week. So this post is pretty short. Trevor had some keys made. Yep, that’s the key guy. There are multiple places like this around the city to get your keys made. Mason and I led our second English class and it was much... Continue Reading →
And We’re Back
Well, last week was spent preparing for the incoming team from Ohio. With most of the staff gone to a counseling conference for the week, we were left to help Liandro hold down the fort. This consisted of picking up the sheets and blankets from the cleaners, getting the vans washed, making beds, and making... Continue Reading →
Pedra Grande, Beans and Rice, and a Loose Tooth
We have been waiting to hike Pedra Grande until this month when we would have the time and the weather wouldn’t be blazing hot. We loaded up the car with the interns and headed out. Labeled the City’s Postcard, Pedra Grande, or Large Stone, is a main attraction for the city of Atibaia. Raising to... Continue Reading →
The Week of Ss
We had a Super Short week with School and Stroganoff. This week was pretty low key. The missionaries are busy planning and preparing for the start of second semester in August, but with the kids being gone and with us just being volunteers, we don’t have a lot of responsibilities right now. This timed out... Continue Reading →
Caldas Novas and Quinze Anos

We accompanied Roberto and his family to Caldas Novas to drop off Daniel for his month long internship at Palavra da Vida Centro-Oeste. Caldas Novas is in... Continue Reading →
Festa Junina and Good-byes
We had been busy all last week and hadn’t had a chance to grocery shop so we ran over to a Brazilian fast food place. You don’t find many of those here. We all had chicken tenders and fries. I’ll give you one guess as to who picked this place. Ministry with the Florida team... Continue Reading →
A Trip to the Helen of Brazil, a Trip to the 5th Largest City in the World, and a Mission Team Make for a Long Week
But before we get to the travel, we need to back up to the start of the week. Joy was trying to get the little kids to play a game and they were having a real hard time settling down, so Tucker, without being prompted, stepped in to play too and the kids got quiet... Continue Reading →
I Forgot A Title
Well, Papaw and Nana have already been gone a week. Time is just flying. It will be time to go home before we know it. Trev giving it all he’s got. 😉 Ministry continues and, as always, it looks different. Sometimes, that looks like almost being beat in an arm wrestling match in order to... Continue Reading →
They’re Heeeeeerrrrre….
Grandparents! Mom, Papaw, and Nana were able to come visit. Ron and Norma Jean will be here a week and Mom will be here for the month of June. Trev and I picked them up at the airport in São Paulo. The boys were so excited about this visit. They had been counting down the... Continue Reading →
