New Series of Sermons in John's Gospel

On the Sunday before last I started a new series on the last of the 4 Gospels to be written, probably in the last decade of the 1st century, and I continued this series in John's Gospel this Sunday too. At the end of the service one young man raised his hand to express faith in Christ and comittment to Him. PTL! The praise and worship was particularly blessed this Sunday. Our band is really good and in a great spirit.

We had a nice visit from Miriam Price who was over for a couple of weeks or so from the UK to visit her family. She kindly brought us a few Christmas things (pudding, cake etc.) sent by my sister Jean. It was nice to chat with her and catch up on her news. She has now returned to Blighty.

Talking about my sister Jean - she held a Musical Charity Concert again for EAB last Saturday with lots of her students taking part. It raised over £300 for EAB which is excellent! PTL! Many thanks Jean for this effort.

We have a problem with some of our workers and value your prayers. I can't go into details, but it has created a lot of tension and stress unnecessarily. These things are sent to try us!

This week I will be having a meeting with our deaf pastor to discuss that section of the work, and on Saturday I will be preaching at the EAB/ACEV Portelo Church in the rural area near Campina Grande. The Patos band will be going too. 

We have the boy scout cubs camping at Green Pastures at the weekend. I will do a guided tour of part of the Reserve with them. On Sunday night I will be preaching again. Philip will be taking the Bible study on Thursday.

Today we had a meeting with lots of our leaders discussing ways to develop further and expand the Action Child programme. Please pray.
