Saturday night activities

Saturday night was a night full of church activities. I went to Green Pastures and led the local church in the service and I preached God's word from Philippians 1:1-11. Sacha led the praise together with Rogaciano on guitar. The service was outstandingly good and counted on a whole lot of local Christians taking part: Paulo Silas, Josué, Dodora, Fred, Pastor Sal, Julio, Nega and the women's group and Manoel.

Parallel to this services were held in Passagem, Ipueira and in a central town square in Patos. The latter was led by our youth group and had the impactive participation of the drama group which is very important to get people's attention in the open air. One young man made a recommitment of his life to Christ at the end of the service.

You will be very sad to know that QPR lost their first home match of the season by 1 x 0 to Ipswich. They are now in 17th place in the 24 team Championship. This coming Saturday QPR will be travelling to Southampton to play the saints. 

Last night's main service of the week in Patos, which I led, went very well with Philip preaching on 1 Corinthians 13. Sacha led the praise and worship on her birthday.

At the weekend the women of our 3 churches of Vazante, Barra de Oitis and Mata de Oitis joined together for a 'women's conference' to which 44 women went. It was a blessed time for all.
