We pray for each other

We're all in the same boat with this pandemic so we pray for each other. We do really value your prayers and support. We minister to so many people via Internet as this is the only way. Liz and I plan to do a live transmission to the church at the time of what is our normal main Sunday service. All services were banned here, as from this week, which we are aware is the case in so many countries.

We seek to remain positive in all this and watch little news broadcasts. I am on the BBC opinion panel, as I have been for years, and I have just been asked for my opinion on its coverage of the crisis. I gave very frank answers to their questions.

We maintain our daily devotional times of course, listen to good inspirational music, read good books (reading a commentary on Galatians at the moment with one on Romans next), watch films, and in the evenings we have a fun and jokes time with the family on WhatsApp. There is a lot of guidance to be given to our different fellowship groups and major decisions being taken with the general church leadership team. We value your prayers for us that we may be kept healthy and strong in the Lord for us to be able to keep counselling and supporting the many who need it. 

I plan to write some EAB stories here on my blog and on the EAB Facebook page in the coming days. I will continue to write for the churches here's benefit as well. We all must have a positive agenda for the glory of God whether in isolation or not. May God help us all to this end at this time.

Please especially pray for Brazil facing immense ignorance from many (disbelief in the problem!) and much inertia and irresponsibility from some authorities. Our public health structure is frighteningly inadequate. Please remember us in your prayers and help support us as we seek to continue the work and care for the flock and very poor communities in creative blessed ways.
