The Lord allowed us to once again put together a running team involving guys and graduates from the chacara in Alvorada! We participated in the Porto Alegre Marathon Relay on May 25 and came in 6th place (of 12 teams) in our category of men's octets. A great result for a bunch of amateurs! For me, the best part is seeing the chacara guys learn the value of teamwork, encouragement, and setting & accomplishing goals. Running is more than just great sport and great for your health, it's a great lesson for all of life. 
After the race, we enjoyed a picnic lunch, devotional and fellowship in the park. What a great gathering of the Lord's people, and a testimony to society that anything - and everything - is possible through Christ who strengthens us!
