Elder & Deaconess

Yesterday Liz and I went to visit our oldest leadership couple in the Patos church. Elder Pedro Guedes is 89 and his wife and Deaconess Beatriz is 85 (86 next week). They are a lovely couple who are in good health. Beatriz had Covid but recovered well without any after effects. We had a lovely chat to this outstanding Christian couple and had a time of prayer together as well.

Yesterday I also had my influenza vaccination so that's that done for another year.

The Covid situation in Brazil has improved though it is still serious. Deaths per day are around 1,300 as opposed to 4,000 a day at the peak of the pandemic crisis. Slowly (too slowly) vaccinations are being done and this is helping of course.

This Friday we are organizing a field day for our market garden project participants. Starting very early, and going right through the day, we will take about 20 market garden leaders to visit our market gardens that are doing well so that everyone can learn, share and get inspired. Our technical agricultural expert will be part of the day's leadership team to answer question and give tips. Please pray for this important and special day.
