This is Nancy. I'm filling in as the "blogger". We are back from Camp California, and we had a wonderful time. Brad will post about it soon and add some pictures. It was such a wonderful experience for the kids, the staff, and for us! So...stay tuned.
Here is an update on today:
We had a break this morning. It was a much-needed one since we have been "on the go" since we got here. We enjoyed the rest and got to Restoration Ministries for lunch at noon. This afternoon we spent time with the Restoration staff during a staff meeting. It was a wonderful time of fellowship and encouragement. We've only been here a short time, but it's amazing how well we have already gotten to know these people. They are so committed to their ministry, and their lives are a challenge to each of us. God has brought such unity in the group and has used all of us to encourage each other. We are excited to continue to pray for this hard-working staff when we return to the States.
We are about to go out to eat with their staff at a Rodizio. Today our team has been practicing what we learned from the "Restaurant" section of our Portuguese book. It should be a very fun experience.
Tomorrow we will do a VBS in the morning and in the afternoon. Please pray for energy and connection with the kids. We are so excited to tell you about all that we have seen and learned. God is good!

So glad you got some rest today and were able to connect even more with the ministry staff there! Hope you all enjoy the REAL Rodizio's! How do you say "no alligator please" in Portuguese?
I know you are making wonderful connections with the people of Restoration Ministries and the kids you are working with. I am praying for vbs today and look forward to hearing about how it went.
