Brazil Bound!

That's right! That glorious day is almost here! Come Saturday a team of young adults from Watermark are headed into the Amazon to swim with piranhas, wrestle alligators and share Jesus with the locals. Okay the first two things aren't really on our list of things to do, but the third one is. It's hard to believe that we've been preparing for this for so many months and now it's finally here. There will be lots of updates to come once we get back, but in the meantime please feel free to check in on what we're up to on www.watermarkinbrazil.blogspot.com. As we head into the upcoming week, I do have a few prayer requests.

*The biggest one I can think of is that I'm fully there and not just present. I would hate for distractions at home to consume my mind while I'm there for purpose of sharing Christ and building relationships.

*Sweet community. I'm going with such a great group of people, and a week on a boat can be a great time to deepen those relationships.

*And last but certainly not least, that the Gospel would spread. That each man, woman and child we meet would see the love of Christ and what it looks like to have a relationship with our Savior.

I can't wait to get home to share pictures and stories! I'm excited!
