Update from Anthony and Rachelle (and baby)

October 27, 2022 Eden Grace

Welcome Home Jasper!!!
If you're on our prayer chain you've no doubt been praying for baby Jasper and his family over the past six weeks. Baby Jasper is the the new baby of Gleni and Kaylee, Anthony and Rachelle's teammates, The following report is the latest update and it is a wonderful praise to our God, the Healer!

(The following is from Anthony, Rachelle, and baby)
Hey praying friends! We're so excited to tell you that after 3 surgeries and 6 weeks in the hospital little Jasper is finally home! He came home August 22, and his parents are so excited! We're all excited for them! Thank you so much for joining us in prayer for our coworkers! You can continue to pray for Gleni, Kaylee, and Oliver as they adjust to having a new member in the family. Pray Jasper would continue to put on weight, as he lost a lot of weight in the hospital. He's back to his birth weight now, and needs to put on more weight. (first picture is the day Jasper went home. Last 3 photos are of a party we did for Gleni's birthday and celebrating Jasper's homecoming)

Love you all!

Life in Brazil

Hey friends! I hope this e-mail finds you doing well. You all ready for another update?! Good! Grab your favorite drink and snack, sit back, relax, and see some little glimpses of my life in Brazil!

Happy 4th of July!

Covid-19
As you may have seen in the news, we've had a lot of cases of the virus here in Brazil. Even the little town I'm living in has seen a large increase in the number of cases in the past few weeks. So far no one inside the mission property has had the virus, which has been a huge blessing! Please continue to pray that it stays that way. We have several people here who have pre-existing heath concerns and have taken extra measures to not catch the virus. Please be praying that, if it's the Lord's will, we might all stay healthy here.

Photography
Many of you who know me know I love photography. Though it's something I love to do, I haven't taken many photos in the past few years. As people have discovered my love for photography, I've begun to do more for those here at the training center and for the mission.

Friends!
As I've expressed in previous letters, I'm so thankful for the many friends I've made in the past 6 months! They've taught me so much and it's been amazing to grow alongside them! Here we are enjoying the fresh air and fellowship during a work day we had.

Camping!
Spending time around the campfire is always fun especially with friends!
God's been so good and I'm super thankful for all the experiences God's given me.

Ways you can be praying:

1) For wisdom for future plans. Recently I've been talking to leadership about future ministry possibilities and have been presented a couple different opportunities. Please pray for wisdom in this process.
2) For my parents in wisdom as to when to return to Paraguay. I know it's been hard for them to plan with all that's been going on with the virus.
3) For clarity of mind in my language studies
4) A closer walk with our Savior

Thank you all for your love and prayers! As always, let me know if I can be praying for you as well.

Anthony
