Cars and people walk and roll past us, two thoughts are going through my head at the moment... "THIS IS SO COOL" and "It feels like I'm in a movie."
I'm sitting here on my bed, in the room that will be my home for the next two weeks, I still can't believe this is happening! The room is purple, but still its bigger then my one at home and is pretty good :)
Waiting in Miami for 6 hours was a little boring but I managed, talked a little with Savannah (one of the other team members) and read my book.
As we were driving here from the air port, which is about an hour away, I had a chance to look around, my mind is still dizzy from the information that I am taking in. Once we got to the part of town where we were staying in, it was crazy! In a good way :) It was like something off of a movie, going down the dirt roads, people selling random fruits and other things, either in little wooden shacks or on the ground with a blanket. Our driver, George, who works here at the youth centre, spoke little to no English, but he was really nice. George drove through the busy streets, bringing us here to our home for the next two weeks.
Once we got here the Missionary that runs the Youth Centre, Joyce Hancock, introduced us to Josh, another Brazilian who works at the centre. Josh speaks decent English, and is 19, I can tell we will be good friends :)
Tonight we are going to a church service, in which I have been asked to do one of the Drama Bible stories I do at camp and at church, Julie, another team member, is doing a solo with her flute.
I am so excited to see what God does in these next two weeks! Thank-you once again for all your prayers.
God bless!
