On Saturday afternoon a terrible thing happened with a Christian family in Patos from the Regular Baptist Church. A 13-year-old boy shot and killed his mother and younger brother and shot and seriously wounded his father. The father is a policeman. Please pray for the man in hospital in Campina Grande. The boy said he did the shootings because his parents wouldn't let him play videogame enough!
I led the service at Green Pastures on Saturday and it was excellent. The Patos youth sang beautifully as did two local farming folk Manoel and Nega. Alice brought a short word which was very good, and Pastor Rafael preached. In last night's service in Patos I again led and Sacha preached very well indeed. The children and youth groups also did nice singing items.
I have been chasing up people missing from church and it's good to see a positive response. Despite a heavy half hour's rain last night just before the service we had a pretty full church.
