São Mamede

Last night I travelled to the neighbouring town of São Mamede which is a 25 minute drive north-east of Patos. I went with the Men's Fellowship and the service was led by the Chief of Police Esau. Those that also travelled were Caetano, Rebeca, Moises, Chico, Rafael, Tiago, Márcio and Fábio. The service was held in front of brother José and sister Maricó's house. I sang a solo (If that isn't love) and preached the parable of the Sower from Matthew 13. It was a lovely service.

We had a very good meeting with the new leaders of the adolescents Adriana and Segundo. They will now hold meetings on a Friday night and we pray that God will mightily bless them and use them. For a long time I have been concerned about the spiritual welfare of this age group as it is a critical period in a person's life. Please pray for these meetings.

Liz has been to visit 88 year old Maria Prata in hospital in intensive care. Our sister in Christ has long been bed-ridden and is fed by a tube. She has now been intubated and we pray for the family at this difficult time.

I will not publish anything on this blog this Friday as we will be at our General Conference at Campina Grande. I will write again on Sunday or Monday. Please pray for the Conference.
