Carissa started her journey to Sao Paulo, Brazil early this morning.  She will arrive in Sao Paulo tomorrow morning about 8 am.  The journey will take about 20 hours (after accounting for time changes!)  She will be serving as a missionary for 18 months in the Porto Alegre North Mission.  But the first part of that will be at the CTM in Sao Paulo where she will study the Portugese language and culture, along with learning what it takes to be a missionary.  She will have the opportunity to share the restored gospel of Jesus Christ with the Brazilians and we are so excited for her.  As we receive letters, etc. from her I will post them on this blog. Also, her address will be updated as necessary or you can always e-mail her at the address listed.  Thanks for supporting her on this Greatest Adventure!
