A War of Loves

I have just read the book by David Bennett called 'A War of Loves: The Unexpected Story of a Gay Activist Discovering Jesus' with the foreword written by N.T.Wright. It is an excellent book which was a blessing to read. Very well written, a wonderful and moving story which expresses the same Christian position on the field as I share. 

Yesterday in Patos I preached on 'The Presence of Jesus changes everything' based on John 21:1-14. To God be the glory for the great impact the sermon had on so many people.

On Saturday we had a 7-hour leadership meeting preparing for our national conference later this month to be held at Campina Grande. The 10-person leadership team gathered in Patos on Saturday from Manaira, Itaporanga, Imaculada, Patos, Campina Grande and João Pessoa. The meeting was excellent and took some important unanimous decisions.

Yesterday Kira Taylor ran the Southampton Half Marathon to raise over 500 pounds for EAB's work and projects. We thank Kira and all who sponsored her. It is encouraging to see a young person getting involved with the Mission in this way.

A decision for Christ has been reported in Teixeira and another in the rural area of Juazeirinho. PTL!

We'll be inaugurating a number of new toilet/shower facilities at Barra de Oitis later this month.
