We are finally here! We arrived at 12:30am on Thursday. Yesterday was slow since we were just trying to catch up on sleep. Hava was GREAT on the trip. She only had a screaming episode on the first descent, because she was asleep and couldn´t pop her ears. But from then on, she slept on most of the flights. We stopped in Fortaleza, Ceara and caught up with some old friends who supported us when we dated and who are still in the ministry, as well as their 3 children. We had at least 2 flight where there were Jewish men on our planes. One we did not have the pleasure of speaking with, but the other actually spoke with us. Al was able to talk to Steve (an American married to a Brazilian who met each other in Israel and now live and work in Brazil) a bit and give him some literature (thanks, Bobby!!!). Please remember these men in your prayers as well as Heath - an American who was traveling alone and did not speak Portuguese. He flew with us to Fortaleza and we were about to talk with him for a few hours as he waited for his next flight. He didn´t appear to be a believer, but had heard of Messianic Judaism before. He is from Orlando, FL and is dating a Brazilian. We are now trying to get things in order (planning and meeting with workers here) to be able to put into action what the L-rd has asked us to do. We have very limited access to the internet at this point, but we have plenty of videos and pictures we will upload as soon as possible. By the way, IT IS HOT HERE! :o) Pray for us and be blessed!!!
