Hey family...

I´ve got a few minutes to myself on the computer, so I decided to check the blog. Where are the Schalms??? It was good to hear from you Brenda. We´re so thankful that nothing more happened to you in the accident.

We are all doing well. Dwayne and Shannon have renewed their tourist visas for another 3 months to give us time to start their permanent visa process. Jessi was officially registered as a Brazilian this morning. Now the process starts...lots of fun!!!

God has been doing great things in the lives of everyone around here. We believe more and more in this ministry. Boy, now that I am reading Houses that Change the World and The Ragamuffin Gospel at the same time, I have much more to discuss with all of you.

Mom and Shannon baked some brownies for us to share with the staff tonight at midnight!!! Just a little encouragement for the staff. Anyway, we love you all very much.

Hope to hear from you all soon. We are wanting to send out our update letter with a few pictures in the next couple of days.

love,

Patsy
