Farewell friends!

Oh, how sad we were to say goodbye to everyone from the Brazil Youth Meeting! Even though we were only together for a week, we grew very close to our new friends from Ribeirao Preto, Paraisopolis and Salvador. Our students were particularly sad to bid farewell to their stellar and loving host families from Colegio Santa Ursula.

Our last prayer together (for now)

One last funny friend photo

 

Had to have a celebratory last dance, of course!



The adults made new friends too! Ms. Nipp will miss her friends from the Brazilian Paparazzi.

Airport Farewells are never easy....

Hugging as long as possible before getting on the plane

Farewell Friends and Host families!!! Thank you for everything!!!

And so, we left Ribeirao Preto with great reluctance but with joyful hearts full of love and gratitude for this marvelous opportunity to be together as one Ursuline family. More coming soon from our final Brazilian adventure .....

On the plane to Iguassu Falls ....
