Large black ants

Patos is in the middle of an invasion at the moment of large black ants. Everyone is talking about them and combatting them.

On Saturday morning, as from 8 am, we held another jumble sale. Sometimes we hold them at our school on the south of Patos and sometimes we hold them outside our church in the centre. This time it was at the church and all went well. It was to raise funds for the building work on our Care Centre. Many church volunteers turned up to help with the sale. 

We now have a night watchman sleeping at the Care Centre building site as the electrical wiring has all been done which is a common target of thieves on building sites. The night watchman is extra expense of course, but we have no choice.

QPR sadly lost 2 x 1 away to Southampton yesterday. 😒

Last night I led the service of the Green Pastures' church, Philip led the praise and worship (we are going to miss him when he returns to England tomorrow), and Murilo preached on Hebrews 4:1-4 and 'Resting in God'. It was a good service. Parallel to this services were held at our school in Patos and at Passagem and Ipueira.
