The month of June in north-east Brazil is the month of great festivities, focused on St. Anthony's Day on the 13th (the equivalent of St. Valentine's Day in the UK), St. John's Day on the 24th (this is the biggest festival), and St. Peter's Day on the 29th. This is the harvest month of beans and maize and lots of maize based dishes are eaten. It is also the cooler time of the year with temperatures only reaching 33 degrees.
I have had my hair cut today. I hope you like it! I had it cut at 7 am. 👦😇
I have been preparing my sermon for our youth camp to be held at Green Pastures from June 21st to 24th. I will be preaching on 'It all starts with Jesus' from Colossians 1:15-16. Please pray for this camp.
Our grand-daughter Louisa and her husband Tiago are now safely settling in at Basingstoke and our grandson Arthur is back in Patos after his Afro-European tour.
I have been having important discussions with Pastor Manoel Severo of our Mata Redonda church, between Joao Pessoa and Recife. These have been linked to discussions with our senior leadership team too.
Last night Liz and I took part in an excellent meeting of our school teachers.
