the juice bar on the ground level of our buildingWe're in Rio!
Our apartment is on the 3rd floor.The open window is ours.
Our apartment building is 12 stories. Notice our open window.
The bedroom: The side that you can't see has a large closet. First time our clotheshave had a closet since leaving home. It feels good!
The bathroom: Josh, it's an instant hot water heater - nice!
the kitchen: that is the side of the refrigerator on the left
The living and dining room combo: This apartment is the largestthat our apartment hunters had looked at for us.
We were welcomed with fruit, flowers and a clean apartment.
Another view of the living roomWe arrived in Rio last Fri. and are enjoying the city very much. It could not be anymore different from Foz. People everywhere. Noisy and much dirtier. Be careful where you walk - both for safety and because you never know what you may step on!
There are great needs here. The biggest being that many do not know Jesus. Too many.
It could all be way too overwhelming.
And then I remember.
But God...
And I find myself asking, "Is this the place, Lord?"
Did I mention that this apartment is two blocks from Copacabana beach?!
Pictures of that next time!!!!!!!

The apartment looks like it needs some Sheri and Warren projects! Seriously I'm sure you are enjoying the space and the time in Rio. How sweet to leave fruit, flowers and a clean apt.
Thanks for posting pictures!

SO GREAT to see your new place. It always helps to make you seem not quite so removed. And thanks for the call. Sorry I couldn't find my camera.
Copacabana. Wow.
You will be close to the beach as the weather is warming up in Brazil? How sweet is that!? [makes up for the curb appeal, I'm sure!]
Copacabana....I left a piece of my heart there as well.
I want to come back!!
Nice apartment for Rio, I've heard it's quite the party town, very crowded and noisy.
Praying for Gods continual protection and leading.
I'm so happy for a post! I miss being able to talk! Fun seeing your apartment :) love you!
Wow. I love it, really. Makes me thing of the cozy downtown place you left here and how God really was preparing you. :) Excited to hear new RIO adventures. We really are praying about making a trip. We feel like we want to have sort of a Wilson family mission trip.
Awesome Sheri! I am excited to see what God does.. we will be praying...Big Hugs!
