Went running again this morning at about 6:50am. This time I went up to the seminary and ran on the road that encircles it, supposedly measuring a full kilometer in circumference. So I ran three times around, not even a full two miles (1.8) and I was tired. But I think it was more than more »

Today I woke up at 6:30am, quickly took a cold, refreshing shower, and packed all my stuff. At 7am we were on the road, headed out of Fortaleza. People were already awake and moving for the day, but traffic wasn’t too bad yet. Shortly after making it out of the city, we stopped at a more »

Well, today is the day that I left my United States for Brazil! It’s so CrAzY to think about all that has happened since Jim Leonard first asked me to go. Raise support, buy stuff, learn a couple words in Portuguese. I was at camp last week, training some of the new staff and saying more »
