Photos from Brazil

I had my mother in law drop me off at my house today so I could pick up a few things I need and grab my camera. I must be feeling better if I want my camera, right?! I am feeling much better than before and finally feel like I am on the mend. I may even attempt a trip to the office tomorrow if all goes well.

While I was home an email arrived from Marty, full of pictures and the simple statement, "Here are some pics for your blog." :0)

I guess someone showed him how to email pictures because that's one thing I forgot to show him how to do when I got him the camera and computer!!! So, a big thanks to whichever team member is helping Marty!!! And I'm sure my readers thank you too as I'm sure they are sick of looking at the same thing every time they visit my site.

The mission trip is going very well and I anxiously await news of today. I am able to email Marty every night when he returns to his hotel. I believe today was the day he was to help the ladies (Reva and Denise) with VBS at a school.

Here is Marty along with our pastor (Mitch) with a family in Brazil. Each person pictured with them made professions of faith after hearing testimonies from our team members.

I await to hear from Marty what this photo is....

(I just got word from Marty this is a hot dog stand)

Team members Larry (one of our deacons, also the father of Lisa over at C&C World--he's the man in the orange shirt), and Marty is on the far right in the striped shirt.

Marty with a gentleman who made a profession of faith this week after hearing testimonies from our team members.

Marty with members of another family who all made professions of faith this week. What an awesome God we serve!

He's even taking the time to take some scenic photos. Marty does love pineapple....especially grilled in Brazil!!!

Our pastor, Mitch, with another family.

If I'm not mistaken I believe Marty told me 20+ people have made professions of faith this week and there are 13 prospects for the new church.

We Have New Babies

You know I've been sick when I tell you I haven't even picked up my camera since the night I took photos of the moon. Seriously, that's the last time I used my camera. The photos posted since then have been old ones or some Marty has taken. Today's post is no exception. When I returned home from the hospital these are some of the photos found on my camera. The deer have been wondering around our yard daily and Marty's been snapping photos whenever he gets a chance. Here's some of what he got while I was gone:

I Didn't Know He Had It In Him

I said in a recent post that I never know what I'm going to find when I upload pictures from Marty's camera. Judging from what I am finding, getting him a camera was an excellent choice for his Father's Day gift!



Among the photos of all of us trying to capture the moon last night, and pictures of a current construction project I also found these: I hope he wasn't late getting to work that morning!!








Aren't they gorgeous???

Marty's Had His Head in the Clouds!

I never know what I'm going to find when I upload photos from Marty's camera! Typically I might find headless bikini shots, but imagine my surprise when I found these in the mix!

I think he's enjoying the new toy we gave him for Father's Day, don't you???
