She's Back!

Today we welcomed my beloved mother-in-law (yes, I love my mother-in-law!), Vanda, back to Porto Alegre. She spent the past year in Franklin, TN learning English, living with an American family, working as a nanny, and acquainting herself with our church and with many friends in the greater Nashville area. Waleska and I are very happy to have her back here with us, for a while anyway...Vanda is not one to stay put for very long. Who knows what her next adventure will be? Hopefully, she will stay in Porto Alegre with us for the next several months. Among many things, we will look forward to her being a part of our house church. I will also enjoy some of her home-cooked vegetables, fish and special salads...


Waleska and I would like to thank everyone at Fourth Avenue Church who made Vanda feel at home and welcome in Franklin, especially Walter & Mary Nelle Kriedel, for their wonderful friendship and "jeitinho" with Vanda! We would also like to thank Robert and Brandy for their hospitality and for adopting Vanda as part of their family.

You know your mother-in-law is great when she takes your side in an argument...thank you Lord for Vanda!
