Having had our two doses of Coronavac Chinese vaccine our doctor gave us the green light to return, with caution, to in person services in church. The Chinese vaccine is not the best, as even the Chinese manufacturers admit, but it was what was offered to Liz and I so we took it as better than nothing. It was absolutely great to be back in church! I led the service and Rafael preached. It was a lovely service. The folk at church were very happy to have us back so all in all it was a special day yesterday.
Talking about special days, today is the twenty-first twenty-first birthday of our great friend and co-worker in mission Marian Rashleigh. Happy birthday Marian! Hope you are having a great day there in Blighty 4 hours ahead of us.
I had a good talk after church last night with Nurse Liliane, who is a member of our church, married to Claudivan. Liliane works 100% of the time with Covid patients over the past 14 months and has never caught Covid. It is amazing how this virus works. Some don't get it despite enormous exposure, others get it mildly, others get it severely and others die. It is an amazingly challenging time in which we live! Here in Brazil we are still seeing around 2,000 deaths a day, which is certainly better than the 4,000 mark we had reached, but it still is a very high number. And the President keeps attacking the state governors who combat the pandemic. The man is unhinged and never fit to be president of a nation of over 200 million people.
Please pray for Pastor Francinaldo's wife, at our Manaíra church, who has just gone down with Covid. Her name is Carla Lécia.
