It's the coolest - their winter time. That's why we always go to Kenya in June/July too. I go there to cool off!

Sounds like a great trip Sherri! My missions trip is not until next May. The wife and I are going to try and reach that unreached demographic - people on a 15 night cruise from Miami to first off the coast of Africa to the Canary Islands then on to Europe with stops in Spain, France, and Italy, ending up in Rome where we will spend a few nights trying to convert Roman Catholics at the Sistine Chapel, St. Peter's Basilica, etc. We are taking donations for this missions trip by the way if anybody wants to help.

I am expecting you to baptize all along the way in that huge cruise ship swimming pool. We want pictures!!!

We will have a nice time. Shrerri is such a sweet person to have. When some people come you feel uneasy the whole time afraid you might say or do something or even the accomdations might not be just right or the food will not be good enough or whatever...not so with Sherri...
At one of the poorest homes she went with me to visit and on that day the sweet little sister had been without water and things were...well...if you have been on the field in some of these places you will know.... however the little sister fed us pineapple and Sherri ate with such a smile...that little sister will forever be impressed that my American friend would come to her hovel and really feel at home.
On the mission field people watch your expressions, your actions and believe me they know if you really love them. It is so amazing the love Sherri transmits to the people.



We just might do another soup kitchen while she is here the people love to do it and many hungry people are fed...We will see...

Wish everyone her could come to the mission field at least once...it is from a mission field we learn true thankfulness at God´s many blessings.

There is going to be some other Americans visiting up in our state so we will try to get Sherri back on the straight and narrow!

We will remember you all on missions Sunday...ha...like Sherri said we really want to get some good reports. Maybe you could really get some converted at the Basilica...Well...my friend you all enjoy...and if you visit the catacombs get me a picture or a post card for my Bible students...love you all.

Oh, a soup kitchen would be great! Put me to work........I just want to help and be a blessing.
Are the other Americans really going to be there when I'm there????? (Now I'm nervous). Lol! Can you PM me and let me know who they are?

Putting a new meaning to "Rock that boat!"

I could just imagine a Pentecostal church service on a cruise ship!

What an awesome blessing! A blessing for you because the ticket is free. And a blessing for the Alvears just because you will such a blessing for them. :)

Just do me a big favor and give Sis Alvear a HUGE hug and let her know that that came from me :)

Sounds like you all will have a great time.

Maybe someday I'll get to visit Brazil.
I think I did zillions of "reports" in school on Central and South American countries. For unknown reasons 4th,5th, and 6th grade social studies were always the Southern Hemisphere. But, this was in the '50's when dinosaurs roamed the earth.

(Is this why Americans have no knowledge of "American History"?) :spit

I'd like to go on a missions trip. Brazil has crossed my mind. Could have gone to Antiqua but just found out about it too late to get plans together. Never been out of the states.

One month from today, I will be on a plane headed south. Can't wait!! I spend the night in Brasilia - I will take a taxi from the airport and back the next morning to fly to Maceio.

I was excited to know that I could have two 70 pound bags on Delta, but then I found out that I am only allowed 40 pounds TOTAL on the flight from Brasilia to Maceio!! So I will have to pack extremely light. Those short-shorts and halter tops don't take up much space though, so I should be fine.
