Gideons International

On Saturday night Liz and I went to a meal held by Gideons International for the pastors of Patos. It was a lovely evening with good fellowship. The Gideons distribute New Testaments and Bibles in hotels, hospitals etc. Especially nice at the meal was to have lovely fellowship with Davi Amaral who is part of the Gideons. Davi was our bank manager some years ago in Patos, but now he is retired in João Pessoa and we had never more seen him. We have long been good friends.

Prior to this we watched the Coronation on BBC World TV in the morning and we watched the Coronation Prom in the afternoon direct from the Albert Hall. The All Souls orchestra and choir were quite outstanding as was the whole programme. 

Last night I preached in Patos. I did an exposition of Psalm 84. It was a lovely service. It was great to see a young couple there called Rogério and Samana with their little son. This couple made a commitment to Christ just a couple of weeks ago. They were clearly enthused in the praise and worship last night. Please pray for this couple.
