Alright now I'm by myself. So in the evening on Sunday after church the Abel's took us and a few other people out for supper at a restaraunt just outside of Bateias. Their son Matthew was down for Christmas and helped with the camp and vbs, but left today in the afternoon to go back to school in the States, so the supper was a going away present. Kenny, Clayton and Dane downed a burger who's toppings consisted of everything on the menu (an egg, ham, burger, hotdog, tomato, cheese, and a few other toppings that I can't remember). Erin and I stuck with the cheese burger, it was delicious.
Supper time in Brazil is quite a bit different than in Canada. While we tend to eat in the early evening, the Brazilians like to eat later on at night, around 9pm. This is also a meat and potatoes country. There really isn't a lot of vegetables eaten.
After supper we read our encouragement for the day and went to bed. (oh and I watched Dane clean his war wound...the gauze was stuck to his finger...there was pain.)

Good update Lynne. I hope Dane’s war wounds heal well- we are praying for healing. I prayed for each of you his am as I was wide awake at 4:00am nervous about my first day of teaching intro to mission to the 1st years. This year’s group is as amiable as you guys were- easy to get along with and kind to this old teacher. I hear you about the movie. I watched “Proof of Life” on the plane on my way to Afghanistan a few years ago.
We are going to be praying for you these mornings in the 1st year class- have your pics up on the screen.
Bless you all. We prayed for Erin and the whole team yesterday at church (Bardo). Beth was happy to receive Erin’s call on her BD.
We love you! I know the language thing is frustrating, but knowing each of you, know you will communicate compassion and love to those kids.
Bless you! Rob (for Pat too)
