First Sunday in 2018

The first Sunday of the year was really blessed. We baptized 2 (see below) and received them and another person into fellowship at the Patos church. I preached on the theme and verse (Isaiah 6:8) chosen for this EAB/ACEV's 80th year, bringing a challenge for the youth for the present and future. All went very well.

This Monday afternoon we had a meeting of the Desert Flower Project Team. The meeting had been scheduled for last week but the project coordinator went down ill. Today's meeting was very good. After the January break the project gets started again on the last day of this month and we are praying and looking to God for great things in 2018.

This morning at 7:30 am I met face to face with a South American Raccoon (Proyon cancrivorus) for the first time. It is a nocturnal animal so the infrared camera had often registered them at night but I had never seen one personally. It was a wonderful moment!
