Communion Service

This morning's communion service in the EAB/ACEV Patos church was a real blessing. Being independence day we started by singing the national anthem and praying for the nation. The P&W group then led 3 songs of worship positioned in the Marian Rashleigh garden at the end of the projects' building meeting hall. 

Later we heard an announcement from Gerlânia Carneiro who is the headteacher of EAB/ACEV's Action School in Patos. She was overjoyed to announce that our school, which bears the name of Frank Dyer, has just won top place yet again in the government evaluation of schools in Patos, but this time has done so well that it has won second place out of all the schools throughout the State of Paraíba! PTL!

I preached the Word after this and then conducted the communion service. It was a lovely morning in the Lord's house.

The battle goes on concerning 41 year old Raquel Macena's health, who is from Patos but in a João Pessoa hospital. It still is not clear what exactly is wrong with her, but apparently she has some sort of pneumonia plus heart problems. She continues seriously ill and needs our constant prayers. 

My blog has now passed the 129,000 visits mark. Many thanks to people far and wide including those from India, Germany and Switzerland these days!
