I Have Not Arrived
I spent this last weekend immersed once again in Portuguese. I was at a seminar at the church, and spent all my meal times with them there. I had the hardest time on Sunday, when I was with several families from São Paulo, Brazil. They have an accent very distinct and difficult. Even the Portuguese have to ask them to slow down and speak more clearly. Needless to say, I was lost at times, but I was able to really get to know them better and fellowship. Besides that, it was very entertaining hearing all the stories they had to tell. They really know haw to tell stories. That, I am just now learning in English...
Please pray for the next month of preparation, as the course ends and new plans begin.
Please pray that the course would end well.
Please pray for my summer plans.
Please pray as I prepare to enter Mozambique, with all the new packing, paperwork, changes, and planning that needs to take place.
Praise, Praise, Praise for the great experience and growing time that have come with the Portuguese language learning. (I will miss this place and these people.)
