We were blessed to have a few days of rest and relaxation after Christmas and decided to return to Foz do Iguacu, near the Brazil/Argentina/Paraguay border. The majority of our time was spent reading by the pool, walking, and deciding where we were going to eat (although I did have urges to discipline random children in our near vicinity!HA) It was a wonderful time of reflecting over the past year and planning for the next. We praise God for our marriage, our beautiful children, and our family and friends. We pray that 2009 is a year of even greater transformation in our lives and yours. As always, thank you for partnering with us to minister here in Brazil!

If you would like to support our ministry, please send contributions to First Friends Church, 5455 Market Avenue North, Canton, Ohio 44714 (for tax purposes, please attach a note `for the Cochrans`).

Okay, you must explain what is in the picture. Is it a fish? I'm glad you were able to get away and rest. Have a wonderful 2009!
Lots of love,

I have enjoyed reading about all the children at CLM and the work you do there. I'm sure you are both a blessing to those children and most lilely blessed back by them. You and CLM are in my prayers.
Same here... curious about the picture...alligator?? Ha ha... I love that you had the urge to discipline random children... I laughed at that. :) I'm thankful for you both being so willing to give your lives to those wonderful children. I'm glad you had time for a little R and R!!
