Last day

Today was our last full day in Brazil but it surely didn't disappoint. We were able to visit Sugar Loaf and Christ the Redeemer in the morning before heading out for the day's work. It was incredible to be able to slow down and take in all of the beauty that this place holds. 

In the afternoon, we visited a school an orphanage, and held a sports clinic at our partner church. If you know me at all you know that the orphanage was my favorite part of it all. I loved getting to love on society's unloved and unlovable. It's such a beautiful picture of the gospel, and every chance I get to do so I catch another , deeper, glimpse of the Father's heart. These are His children. Beloved and treasured. Chosen and valued. His. I pray that I never forget these moments and that I never live my life outside of the lessons these moments teach my ever-learning heart.
