Latest and Greatest from me:

I am officially on my year of missions work and free from the Marine Corps!

I am slowly but surely making contacts with YWAM bases in Brazil. Some have expressed interest in sponsoring my missions visa. There's a big conference happening there in the beginning of September that would be an awesome opportunity to network with lots of bases at once. Not sure if I can get the visa in time but I'm hoping and praying!

My braces actually seem to be the biggest holdup. Orthodontist said it would a few more months before I finish up treatment.

This summer was a huge step in the right direction. I got to experience the power of prayer on a regular basis and got confirmed that living in tight-nit Christian community is how I want to live permanently.

I'll be spending some time with friends from college/Baltimore in the next couple of days.

This past Monday I was hanging out with Deborah doing some touristy things in DC. We went to check out the Library of Congress. That's where the pic is from. The building itself is ridiculously ornate and very pretty! Check out my pics.

Brazil is Cool and I want in on the Action

Many have asked and many times I have explained Why Brazil? I am going to Brazil because something is going on down there, and I want in on it. Spiritually there is a huge revival going on down there. Small groups explode into megachurches. People receive prophecy and obey to go on and do great things for God. And more missionaries hail from Brazil than any other country in the world. Here's a few stories that inspired me: One prayer team from Brazil instigated a revival in Goa, India. Stephen Baldwin becomes a Christian because a Brazilian nanny obeyed prophecy. A Brazilian Missionary defies 'The Prince of Peru' to instigate revival in Peru. I believe that when I get down there I'll find mentors to take me into more powerful prayer, into more effective evangelism, and more mission-oriented churches. Essentially my hope for Brazil is that I can find a community who will help me take my faith from applying the wisdom of the Bible to something more personal ......
