Couscous

 Yesterday afternoon Liz and I went to Green Pastures for our usual physical exercise although only I walked the full two miles as Liz has to take it easy on her injured foot. We checked on the work being done there planting trees etc. and all is going well. However we badly need more rain as we are well below average for rainfall in this our rainy season. Please pray. When we got back we had couscous with egg in it for our tea which I love.

We have received good news regarding Manassés who is the man about 40 years old with Covid who used to be a member in our Patos church. He has now been declared out of danger by the doctors. PTL!

Please pray for 85 year old Brother Silvino from Manaíra. He has Covid and has been taken to a hospital in Serra Talhada which is in the state of Pernambuco.

Today our oldest elder in the Patos church has his 89th birthday. Liz and I have spoken to Pedro Guedes on the phone and wished him well.

I am a member of the BBC's Global Minds panel and have just answered one of the surveys we do now and again. I have been part of such BBC panels for a very long time going back to the days when Frank Dyer and I used to listen to the BBC news at 3 pm everyday on short wave radio as this was the time of day for the best reception. Now of course we have access to the BBC World service on TV, computer and mobile phone. How times have changed.
