Worship Seminar

In November, Barron led a seminar on worship for the people involved in our praise and worship ministry.

Barron's Part

Barron taught two main sections of the seminar, discussing the ingredients of Biblical praise and worship.

Erin and Rose

Erin and Rose discussed the transition of leadership responsibilities within a team.

Sidineia Helps

Sidineia, from another church here in town has helped our ministry by giving voice lessons. During the seminar she encouraged the team regarding how to maintain a healthy voice.

Prayer

Some of the girls are praying during a breakout session of the seminar.

Vacation Day

Our family took a day off in November to visit the German village of Gramado in the mountains of southern Brazil. It's only about and hour's drive from Gravatai. Here you see Barron and Heidi in front of the waterfall at Caracol which is just a few minutes from Gramado.

The Stairs

After climbing down the equivalent of 42 stories to the base of the waterfall and back up, we knew how Frodo and Sam must of felt trying to get into Mordor. We were sore for days!

Gramado Church

This old church in Gramado was all lit up for Christmas.

South Brazil Team

On Thanksgiving Day, all the missionary families gathered at the Southwell's home for dinner.

Emily on Thanksgiving

Emily is 12...almost 13, but she thinks she's at least 17.
