Every Wednesday evening we have a small team which goes to our Pastor Frank Dyer School on the south side of Patos in the borough of Jatobá. They faithfully go there to hold an evangelistic service targeting children and teenagers from the school and their parents. Owing to the violence at night in Patos people are now very reticent to let their children out at night because the drug gangs have decreed a curfew! The shooting of the little 6-year-old girl also makes people jumpy. Please pray for peace in Patos and for God's blessings on our weekly meetings at our school.
Our brother Etinho from our little church at the picturesque village of Picotes has had a nasty accident tonight whilst loading a cow onto a truck. He has double exposed fractures of his shin bones on one leg (Tibia and Fibula). Please pray for Etinho.
We are having a good but exhausting weekend. On Friday we travelled to chair a church business meeting at our Princesa Isabel church. We installed a 3-man team of pastors Robério, Nemias and Lindon Carlos to care for the church whilst it is without a fixed pastor. Then on Saturday morning we visited a family there prior to travelling to Juru where I preached at the 40th anniversary service held in the street in front of the church. We got back to Patos and to bed at 1.30 am this morning.
QPR lost again! Oh dear! We lost 2 x 0 away to Leeds and are now back at the bottom of the league.
