Oh boy! What a week we have just come through! In a nutshell it involved:
A young couple in the church having a baby which was born with a defective leg – so joy mixed with sadness.
A 7 year old boy from the church died having crashed through a glass door. The ensuing wake and funeral to conduct and now the follow up help and support for the bereaved family.
Speaking at the Inter-Varsity Conference in Pombal which was lovely but ending a message at 10.30 pm was a bit late!
Speaking at a Theatre in Campina Grande where EAB/ACEV’s praise and worship group recorded their second DVD in a mega production. This was on the same day as our 45th wedding anniversary!
We had a full house last night in the Patos church service which was great. 2 men made commitments to Christ, the P&W was really good and the sermon flowed wonderfully.
I am now utterly exhausted and aim to rest up today. Liz has already disappeared to church to check on the builders! Bless her heart! The re-opening of the EAB/ACEV Patos church has been fixed for December 13th/14th with special festive services on both the Saturday and the Sunday. This means we only have 3 more Sundays without being at home in our church!
This week I have a TV interview at Green Pastures on Wednesday – Bible Study in Patos on Thursday – a well inauguration at Imaculada on Friday – speak at the graduation service of our Campina Grande Bible College on Saturday – preach again in Patos on Sunday. We value your prayers and support.
Please pray for my 90 year old Mum who is not so well, my sister Jean tells me.
