I recently was checking up on some missionaries from Brazil. Being that we left Brazil to come to Jackson, TN in late 2009 (we are starting to miss some of those serving there). I also got a chance to learn of some new missionaries that are starting new ventures of faith. Consequently, I remembered our blog which we have not updated since 2009 and decided to update it! So, for those with ears to hear or more specifically time to read...here goes.
This year as passed so fast already. There is so much to tell in just one update so I will write a little now and then progress in future posts!
Our children, Lilly and Lucas are definitely becoming grown up too fast. Lilly will be starting second grade in 2 weeks and Lucas, kindergarten! Both are super intelligent. They both just finished their first season of organized sport (baseball). They really enjoyed it! They have learned how to swim this summer and got re-freshed on their portuguese while spending two months with their Brazilian grandparents as Carol's parents visited us from May to July.
Life here in Jackson has been for a lack of a more exciting term, comfortable. It is the USA after all, where we are supossed to be safe and live the comfortable lifestyle. I have a job working as the Practice Administrator for Regional Heart and Vein Clinic. Of which I throughly enjoy. I also have the pleasure of teaching through the word of God on Sunday mornings at Calvary Chapel West Tenn. It just seems here in America we love our comfort zone and desire "our routine". My hope is that God always keeps us anxiously anticipating what He desires to do next in our lives. As He renews His mercies every morning!
Be Blessed,
-John
