What's going on...

Sorry it's been forever since my last update. Let me inform you on what's new in my life. First off a big difference is that we have moved AGAIN! Thank goodness it's our last move for at least 2 years! We moved to Sao Luis Maranhao. It's a great place! :D I've really enjoyed it! We have a beach within hearing and seeing distance from our apartment! Here's a picture of the view off our balcony that I recently took while the tide was out.

When I get finished with my school work early I go down and walk on the beach! We get really great breezes up on the tenth floor of our apartment. It so nice that sometimes we get the chills from it because our bodies aren't used to that kind of temperature.

School has been going really well. I really enjoy the schooling system I am using, NorthStar Academy. I'm co-leading a Romans Bible Study with another student. We have thirteen other students from NorthStar who have joined it! It's going really great so far! Please pray that God gives my co-leader and I the words to say. The schoolwork itself has been very easy so far and I've been doing very well. NorthStar has been very good for me because I have been able to
make some very awesome friends on there!

For Thanksgiving we will be going to an American family's house here in Sao Luis and we will have lunch with them and hang out for the day at their house! We are also extremely excited about Christmas because some of our family members have bought all five of us plane tickets to come to the states! It will only be for a month though. We haven't seen most of our friends and family for almost two years! So you can imagine how excited we are. We're counting down the days! :) Please pray that we will be able to return home to Brazil with as few tears shed as possible.

Here's some more recent pictures:

These are some shells I found on the beach that had hermit crabs living in them. They were the size of my hand.

Here's an awesome picture of the sunset I took.

Thanks for reading and by the way I will probably have another post by march or late January.
