Very Tired!!!

It's been 4 months I've been up here, lately I've been so busy just as I'm busy in Brazil, which is good and keeps me on shape and prepared to come back! But I get really tired, there is a lot work to keep communication, trying to get new contacts and speaking in different places. But the Lord is good and I'm sure He had this time prepared for me....

I've have had stomach problems for many years and got worse here, I was in emergency room couple weeks ago, so I'm under medication and (trying) to be in a strict diet, when you travel it is hard...

Something really sad happened, my uncle, my brother's father passed away yesterday. He was 49. I felt really sad for not being there for my family, but I rejoice in the Lord that he is saved, he is christian and past week he told his family he was feeling that his end was approaching but he was ready to be with the Lord.

Being a missionary bring its challenges...raising support, being away of family in times like this, etc, etc, etc...but it is God who enable us to do His work and He takes care of us...Even if we do, we don't need to worry..."In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul" Psalms 94:19


We all are called to show Jesus to this fallen world...so we can be an instrument in God's hand to bring as many people who we know to enjoy Heaven with us! God bless you, I really appreciate your prayers! Enjoy my pictures sharing in different places!!!

Good times!

It's being such a long journey, one meeting after another, very busy. My calendar is crazy busy, either I'm going around sharing in different places or I'm working on building connections over the internet and telephone, and I get very tired, I have had 2 weeks in a whole without break couple times since I got here. BUT Lord is good and raised some people to support me offering some time of rest and fun! In the end of March my friend from MN sponsored me to visit LA with her, in April I got to visit Tahoe for Amy's Middleton birthday and on Easter holiday I went Abalone diving in the cold waters in north CA with a group of friends from Oak Hills Church! I thank Lord for those experiences, it makes me rejoice in Him and praise Him, I was crying and praising Him when I went to Indiana Jones ride...just cause He is good for me all the time, He provides for every single need we have, even those ones we didn't know we had!

Even I've being sharing a lot around, the support is still slowly developing, but it is in God's hand. I've faced couple struggles and the Lord is working in some areas that I didn't know I needed healing, it's being a challenging time up here in USA! So in the mean time I make myself enjoy by meeting with different people and seeing God work in different aspects of my life!

Please pray for my mom's surgery recovering, she did had a benign tumor on her uterus but it is gone now! Also for the girls I do bible study in Brazil: Tatiane, Flavia, Tauane and Ariane, we were having such a good time studying God's word before I leave, pray for encouragement for them!

God takes care of everything! We need to surrender to Him!

Enjoy my pictures!
