Welcome Brazilian friends!


What joy we experienced today at Ursuline! Our friends from our sister school in the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil arrived early this morning and spent their first day in Dallas with us. The group was received at Ursuline with a cheerful breakfast reception where the Brazilian students met their Ursuline host sisters for the first time. There was so much excitement in the room and we were especially happy that the arrival of Sr. Helenice (the principal at Colegio Santa Ursula) coincided with a visit from several of our Ursuline sisters from around the USA. This happy coincidence meant that several old friends were able to reunite the moment our friends landed! Gifts, lots of laughs and hugs were exchanged at this first joyful meeting!
 
Our guests took a tour of the school, attended a photo class and enjoyed their first UA lunch. By afternoon, everyone was ready for a little rest as our guests were very tired after their all-night flight. Tomorrow our guests will be with us again and will go on a tour of downtown Dallas. We are so delighted to have this group with us - Welcome to Texas!!!
