Feliz Pascoa

Happy Easter! This is the best we could do with a family photo. We couldn't get Jacob to look up at the camera...

... so we tried a different angle and it worked, but now we have wires that are protruding from Jason's head. Oh well! Here are our friends, Daniel, Marana, and Mirena. M and M are sisters and D is Marana's husband. We went to their wedding in December just before we left to spend Christmas in the U.S. We spent Easter with M and M and the rest of their family (immediate and extended). They live in one of the favelas (slums) near us. They are a great family and are part of the church that we attend in their community.


On Good Friday, a Catholic church near us had a mini parade (not sure what to call it) on the street in front of our house. Here is a video of it...

Great pictures guys! Jacob is so so cute. I have been thinking about you guys a lot lately--we just watched City of God about kids in the favelas of Rio. Not for the faint of heart!
