Hospital visit

Liz and I went to the Patos General Hospital to visit our worker Fabio who was injured in a motorbike accident. His hand/arm is broken and in plaster and his knee is heavily bandaged having been ripped open in the accident. The 2 girls that were also on the bike were fortunate to be unscathed as they didn't even have crash helmets on!

We have received news from Peter & Marion Miles of the death of Pastor Ray Westbook, aged 88 years, who was the pastor at our old church Peniel Chapel for many years. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of our dear brother.

On Tuesday night I travelled with the Patos Men's Fellowship to the town of Sao Mamede where I preached the Gospel from 1 Peter 1:1-9 in a street service which gathered between 40 and 50 people. It was a good service.

On Wednesday afternoon Liz and I had an excellent meeting with our social worker Marah Danielle about the Action Schools project and the 'young at heart' encounters. It was a really productive meeting in which we defined problems and sought solutions.

Liz went to the Wednesday evening women's fellowship meeting and it went well with 10 present. Liz also had a difficult counselling session with a woman but I can't give her name.
