Dinner Tuesday night was nothing short of amazing.
A family-friend at church works with a woman (Anna) who was born and raised in Paraguay. When Anna heard about our upcoming trip to Paraguay, she expressed interest in meeting us before we left. Tuesday night was the night and she made a traditional Paraguayan meat dish and a cornbread-type side dish (both delicious, to Brandon's delight). Talking with her and her husband about Paraguay only made us want to go there even more.
Anna wasn't familiar with the school that Brandon will be working at, but when we showed her the address she knew the area of the city that it was in and said that it was a great neighborhood. We talked about taxis and grocery shopping, running trails and vacation spots. It was nice to hear first-hand about what we were going to encounter. Up until now, we only have e-mailed information to go off of; that, and what I can gather from various websites . . . and we all know how reliable the internet is.
God has proven, once again, His incredible providence as He's placed each of us - Brandon and I; our friend at church; Anna - in exactly the place He wants us. Thank you, Lord!
