1st and 2nd day of AM Seminar

17-18/02/07

Ok, where should I start? Its Carnival in Brazil ,we woke up really early saturday around, 5:30 AM, and its amazing how Paul, JP, Fiona and Jules barely slept that night. JP slept for half an hour with a beer in his hand...crazy! Serioulsy God bless these people... they worked really hard!!!!
So off we went to the Hotel, of course we needed to arrive before everyone to decorate and get everything settle up and guess what? we got lost! The whole trip was suppose to take only 45 minutes but it took us 2 hours to find and get to the place. once we arrived, breakfast was served,and we stuffed ourselves with food and coffee to get going for the day.
Dont know if some of you know about it, but the main theme of the seminar is the offensive and how to be the best soldier for Jesus,eventually you'll read about it on the link magazine.
so everything was decorated army like, the whole staff had green t-shirts and army caps! It was so cool to see people hanging around with it. you would see the boys carrying big boxes up and down and it almost felt like you were in the army yourself, its amazing how these small things really make a difference.
The AMs are so sweet, its being such a cool experience to be here and really feel the fire and love for the Lord of the extended family and to realize that we need these people and how they make a difference.
2 classes were given today, one by Paulo and the other one by Ezra. both very convicting and uplifting.
Singing has been great so far, and the Lord has been doing what we can't, as none of us feel capable, its so cool to rely on him and know that we're nothing, we dont know how to sing, play or anything so he has to do the job for us.
There are so many things happening, It would take me a long time to write down, which I dont really have right now.
last thing though...my life here has been singing and using the elevator, for some reason the elevator is kinda crazy, you press number 2 and sometimes you end up on number 8, so you just smile and relax, no worries...I meet new ppl, laugh, get dizzy, but its part of life and its damn fun!
alright..this is it for now, please pray for my health, Im getting these really bad headaches lately and if you ever had a headache you know how much of a pain that can be. thank you so much!!! and oh yes I alomst forgot, HAPPY B-DAY DEAR FAMILY!!!! we're still on the go!
