Bom Dia!

Good Morning!
yesterday afternoon after I left the center I went back to the apartment and changed clothes (it rained all day so I was wet from the walk I have from the bus stop to the apartment) and went to the mall that is just up the street. The mall is different from our malls in the US. There are not big stores, but a bunch of really small stores! This mall has 5 or 6 floors and seems like it goes on and on! It was fun to just walk around and do some people watching! I ate a crepe with tomatoe and cheese, it was really good! I also had some sorbet that was amazing! I like pretty much all the food here. After I was finished walking around the mall I went to get a taxi. I was a little nervous about doing this, but Bianca had written down the address for me on a peice of paper before I left and told me the safe place to pick up a taxi. The people here are really good about giving me safety pointers. I was a little nervous getting in the car with someone in a foriegn country not being able to speak the language, but as soon as I got in the car the taxi driver said hello! He did not really speak English and we could not really communicate but he was very warm and friendly, again God providing! I talked with the family I little before I went to bed.
This morning I have been talking with Wilson about Evengamed, check out www.evangemed.org for more information. I am excited about Wilson´s ideas and how he is allowing God to use him and his gifts. He shared with more about the ministry and how we could use the computer to get the word out about it. I am going to be praying about some ideas. Then we had lunch, rice and beans! plus from veggies today that were really good. I think I am going to help with some painting in just a little while. The group from STJ (my church) is coming on Thursday, I am really excited to see them! Thanks for the prayers about my sinuses, they are much better now!
