The Repolles Come to Memphis!




Me and Michelle at Graceland


Michelle (and her twin sister Dawn) and I have been friends for 30 years!!!!  We started our first day of kindergarten together and eventually graduated college together.  We have shared so much of our lives!!!  From sleepovers to birthday parties and all sorts of milestones in between!  What a privilege it is to have those in your life like Dawn and Michelle!

After graduating from college in 96', Michelle felt God's calling to join the ministry of Campus Outreach.  She then moved to Brazil where she ministers to college students on a campus there.  Just over a year ago, she became Mrs. Anselmo Repolles!  

We were so excited to have Michelle and Anselmo come visit us in Memphis while they have been here in the States.   It was great to see Michelle again after several years and to meet Anselmo for the first time!  The kids thought it was so cool!!!  Of course, the Brazilian candy really helped to win them over!!!!



Anselmo and Michelle even took time out of their schedules in Memphis to speak to Molly and Mary Kate's classes at FACS!  The kids were thrilled to be able to share their "new friends".  Anselmo taught the kids all about Brazil and shared with them what it meant to be a missionary there.  He shared with them about being the "feet" of Jesus.
