On December 10th we traveled to Caçapava in the state of São Paulo. It was supposed to take about 7 hours but we managed to spend an extra 3 hours to get there! On Saturday the 1-day couples' retreat was spent at a sítio out in the country. Look how rustic and beautiful the little house is...well, what you can see of it!Johnny spoke in 3 sessions that day to the 8 couples who came.A delicious lunch, afternoon snack and supper were served. Here Dona Fátima oversees the cooking of lunch.Guess what I did in my free time there?...How did you know?! This yellow orchid looked SO beautiful against the royal palm and blue sky.On Sunday Johnny spoke 3 more times, but at the church, Igreja Cristã Evangélica.This is Pr José Roberto, his wife Alice, and their son Gabriel.Monday found us heading back home. You don't really want to know but it also took us almost 10 hours to get back. Maybe this post should have the title of "The Long Road Home"! We're thankful for the opportunities the Lord gives us to get to know other believers and churches and for being able to serve Him in this way.
