The 'sponsored toddle' organized by the 'Tiny Church' of Great Lumley Evangelical Church raised enough money to purchase 5 hair sheep for EAB's 4-Legs Project. This truly is wonderful and just shows what can be done! The initial aim of the toddle had been to raise enough money for one sheep so they did very well. The sponsored toddle also raised the profile of the church in their community. 5 very poor families will be very pleased with their sheep.
On Tuesday evening we held a good meeting with Pastor Rafael, his wife Rayla and youth leader Murilo. The couple will now lead the married couples fellowship and Murilo will teach the adult class in our Sunday school.
On Wednesday night Liz and I took part in a special service at the ex-landless settlement in Sao Mamede County to which about 100 people gathered. After the service the hosts, Dodora and Paulo, served hot dogs, cake and pop-drink to everyone. It was a lovely evening.
I led the mid-week prayer meeting and Bible study last night and it was a lovely service.
