CO Brazil Team Update 10-18-2007

The past few weeks have been rather challenging to say the least. Since we could not get our financing worked out yet to buy a house, we had to move into a temporary rental situation. As you may know, moving in any situation is tiresome and stressfull and all the more so when it is done under tight time pressures.

The house is great and seems like it will be a blessing for our family and others, however within the first week of moving in we've already been robbed! For those of you who have never had this experience it is a very violating sensation. Something that is meant to be secure and "sacred" is violated and left felling very vulnerable.

As a family we have been praying and focusing on God as our rock, our shield, and our protector. We can't trust in gates and locks, but in our Lord and savior for our comfort and our security.

I was supposed to travel to the USA this week for a first ever Global Strategy Conference with the US and International Campus Outreach Ministries. However, with the recent move and then robbery I did not feel I could provide the leadership, protection, and care that I feel my family needs at this time and travel the same week. Please pray for us as a family! Pray for God's peace in our hearts and protection. Also pray with us about God's leadership of the strategic global conference that will be going on this next week north of Atlanta, GA.

Thanks for your prayers and continued support! We truly count it a privilege to co-labor with each one of you!
