Matt Stewart took us to the airport on Thursday morning. I'm glad that we left early because we created a SNAFU when we arrived with our 16 heavy pieces of luggage (boxes).
Upon check-in we almost got through without paying any overweight. However, when I asked about it the attendant admitted that we would indeed need to pay. But, the Lord granted us a $500 discount on what we were told that we would have to pay! That was definitely a blessing.
Because the plane was only a 50 seater our boxes had to go through Chicago and then meet us in DC. God blessed and they made it. Our flight from Detroit to DC was smooth. We had a 6 hour layover at Dulles which went by fast. Our flight to SP was also a smooth one, thought the plane was full. I invested in three of those little wraparound pillows for our trip and they really helped.
We had 8 carts at the SP airport which was quite a scene. But because we were making a move back to Brazil they let us go through customs without checking any of our boxes! That is always a praise.
We have been enjoying our time with Annie and Jackson and they with us. They leave this Wednesday for seminary. Pray for their safe trip.
We went to Youth Group last night and sang in the choir this morning. What an exercise for our tongues. Speaking of Jovems, last night was the first time back for Jessica in a long time. Continue to pray for her and Alessandra. We'll be visiting them this week. Barbara was there too. She has been off and on for some time. Pray that she will allow God to do a great work in her heart.
I'm trying out the “normal” Internet (dial-up connection). It should be interesting, so keep in touch.
