I have completed today the preparation of my sermon for this Sunday's celebration service in Patos. The subject will be: "The Church's Mission for 2015 and always". The month of January is the big holiday month here (like August in the UK) so many go away whilst others turn up in Patos visiting family and friends - so you never know how full the church will be.
Being holiday month it's that time again when some give up 10 days of their holiday for the 10-day Outreach with a team usually around 60 strong. This year the Outreach will be at Soledade from January 9th to 19th so please note this down to include in your prayers.
Sacha goes off tomorrow for a month's teacher training course in Recife linked to the English Language School - so please pray for her too as it is a very intense course linked to Cambridge. Her daughters will stay with us.
Yesterday we received just 3mm of rain at Green Pastures which is very little, but better than nothing. It's a start to what we hope will be a good rainy season in this first half of the year.
