Saturday's leadership team meeting lasted 9 hours but it was very good. Exhausting but in a great spirit amongst the 10 leaders and very productive. All was in preparation for the annual Field Conference to be held at Green Pastures and Patos from the 25th-27th May.
Key points decided were that 2 new ministers will be given probationary ministerial status at the Conference and 2 others will be ordained. Two smaller churches are to be given full church status rather than remaining church plants of other churches. Many other planning issues were discussed and the financial difficulties the churches face with the economic crisis in Brazil affecting things was discussed and prayed about.
On Sunday we had a good day in Church on what was mother's Day here. Today I gave a two hour lecture at a university by invitation which went extremely well to well over a hundred students.
Next Monday the Patos Town Council will be holding a special session of the Council in honour of EAB/ACEV's 80 years! It should be quite something and certainly an historic mark for God's glory!
