[Sister Alvear]

We are blessed with many wonderful saints throughout Brazil but especially blessed by those that have been faithful over the years through ups and downs...those who do not expect us to be gods floating around but realize we are just humans with a divine calling.
Right now I have such a christian lady that came over just to do my nails! Every month she apprears as she feels she has little money but in this way she can be a blessing...so feet and hands are clean!
Another sister comes over about everyday to help cook...
another comes and asks for my ironing and takes it home with her and irons free for me.
another sister cooks almost every Sunday night at her house for us and has us over..(sundays are very tiring days for us)

I thought something was so cute. We do have a painter that works for the church and I had mentioned I wanted to paint my bedroom...while we were in the south they did a surprize (believe me it was a surprize) I walked in one wall is painted orange, one tiny part yellow, 2 walls a lime green with flowes all colors drawed on them...about like a 1st grader would draw...so cute some of the flowers are brown, red, dark green stems of various colors...

I was so taken back when I walked in my room...I was speechless...really I am going to keep it this way for a while...they did it and they think it is beautiful...so I love them for doing it!

I am so blessed by such precious people but like all places we do have a few that really keep us humble! ha....
