Hi! My name is Josh. I was 10 years old on January 9th,2011. I went to Brazil when I was only 6 months old. I livedin the city of Curitiba. My church was Igreja BatistaEmanuel. I had many friends in the church and in ourneighborhood. I miss my dog, Lilah.I accepted Jesus as my Savior a few years ago. Myparents and grandparents always taught me about God.One night, I asked my Dad to explain how I could be sure Iwas saved. That night in Brazil, I prayed and acceptedJesus as Savior. I was baptized in our church in Brazil.My Grandpa George and Grandma Maxine weremissionaries in Curitiba, Brazil, too. I liked to visit them alot. We worked in the garden and in the shop a lot. Welike to build things. They are home on an extended medicalfurlough now (whatever that means), but I’m glad I get tosee them often.We are living with Grandma Carol right now. (I keep her busy). I study at home. Mom is myteacher (I keep her busy, too!). I play soccer in a soccer league for boys my age. I also likebeing involved in the church where Dad is helping as Missionary Pastor, Bible BaptistChurch. Mr. Sammy (my Sunday School Teacher) and I are responsible to produce and copythe CD’s of services for those who can’t come to church.That's all for now. Bye.
