Hello! Thank you all for leaving comments, it is so nice to hear from home! Today is the last day of camp, and that makes me really sad. These kids are so amazing and i've truly enjoyed getting to know them this past week. Since Wednesday we've seen a big change in how our group is relating to the Brazilians. Everyone is reaching out, sitting by themselves at a table full of Portugese-speaking teenagers, and it's so encouraging to me to see God working in our lives. The past two nights our group has been singing special music at the night sessions, and its surprising to see how many teens know the songs "Blessed Be Your Name" and "Give us Clean Hands" in English. We have also been giving away our Gospel color bracelets - yellow, black, red, white, green - because the teens here love them! Everyone wants their number to be called during Prize Giveaways so they can get a bracelet. One boy - Mateos - actually bought a bracelet from one of the other campers. Its really cool to see that they are so excited to have a bracelet that can help them share the gospel with others. Tonight we'll be having a wrap-up session where we will be giving away t-shirts that say "Os Regras de Vida" (Rules for Life) on them and having a time for the campers to share what God has done in their lives this past week. For those of you who are familiar with Lake Ann, it will be similar to their Glory Bowl. I'm very excited to see and hear how God has been working in their lives this week as it is hard to discuss such topics without a translator. We will also be announcing the team that has received the most points throughout the week. And we'll be having PIZZA for dinner! - which has us all very excited. Again, tomorrow the entire team will be coming to Lan House to check personal emails and will be able to call home or use Skype in order to touch base with all of you. We also have not heard from Thiago (He was an exchage student who lived with the Harreld's for two years) yet; we hope to see him while we are here.We miss and love you all and look forward to talking with you tomorrow!

In response to the comments... Mike and Carol - Yes that is corn on the hot dogs... they put peas and corn on lots of things! We are truly sorry that Mike didnt get the job. We will continue to pray for your encouragement and God's provision. We haven't seen the bus driver - Berto - this week because we only travel on weekends. We will be seeing him tomorrow so please keep him in your prayers.

Nathaniel - the cold showers are great! Just kidding. Some people have seen monkies but not many, and we certainly havent caught any!
