Imagine.....

....your husband is offered a job. Playing professional ball, but it's in another country. You pack your bags, what can fit into 6 suitcases, grab your two baby girls, your husband's hand, and board the plan. You arrive. They speak the same language, only different. You don't expect culture shock, but it sets in quickly. Everything is so different. The people are colder, not friendly. Walk past without uttering a word. There's no church family to help you, no one with whom you can rely on. You pray, Lord, help! Internet search turns up a small baptist congregation in your city! You make immediate plans to attend.

You attend, all 4 of you.

The Lord heard your cry......you're finally among friends, believers, bothers and sisters in Christ. People to pray with, pray for and who will pray for you.

.....................................................

I'm praising His name tonight for sending us this precious Brazilian family.
