Excellent Carnival Camp

Yesterday saw an excellent start to the EAB Carnival Camp at Green Pastures. Pastor and psychologist Otoniel Cabral from Santa Luzia brought a very good message about Christians taking care of the emotional side of their lives and of helping others do the same. He emphasized the need for Christians to genuinely get to know their fellow church members in a non-superficial way. All this "is part of mutual pastoral care at different levels", he said. As well as the message there was some lovely worship led by our praise and worship team.

This Sunday morning the speaker was Pastor Wostenes Santos who is the pastor of our largest church at Campina Grande. He also brought an excellent message about Christians taking care of themselves in the physical realm. First of all he focused on the Christian being the temple of the Holy Spirit and all that that entails from 1 Corinthians 6. He then went on to speak about the practical ways we need to care for our bodies, such as physical exercise etc. (Wostenes has a degree in physical education as well as theology) Tonight he will be speaking again but the topic will be "taking care of the family".

Please pray for the continuation of the Carnival Camp. Tomorrow the speaker will be Pastor Gersé from Princesa Isabel and on Tuesday the speaker will be Pastor Lindon Carlos from Imaculada.
