Green Pastures, known in Portuguese as Reserva Ecológica Verdes Pastos, has now become a member of FARN (Friends of a Rocha Network). A Rocha is a Christian environmental organization which has the aim, as we do, of caring for creation. We believe that being part of the A Rocha Network will be mutually beneficial. I am sure we will learn a lot from our brothers and sisters worldwide. You can see videos and photos of the Green Pastures wildlife at https://www.facebook.com/ReservaVerdesPastos .

Last night it rained 15 mm at Green Pastures and the night before 20 mm, but we are still hoping and praying for big rains to fill the lake up.
Last night I led the service at Green Pastures and young Bible College student Murilo brought the message from Genesis 1. Three people volunteered to sing songs - Júlio, Fred and Linda. The service was excellent.
Yesterday afternoon Liz and I visited Sister Socorro Help whose sister died with cancer yesterday. We spent some time chatting with her as well as reading the Bible and praying with her.
My sister Joy remains in hospital after her car accident and my sister-in-law Eunice is recovering from her broken wrist after being knocked down by a motorbike. We value your prayers for them both.
