Wells

I have been going over my sermon for next Sunday in Patos on 'The Wells of Gerar' from Genesis 26. Your prayers are valued as I preach God's word. May life-giving water be forthcoming from the wells as we share around God's word in the communion service, which is always on the first Sunday of the month.

Our next Carnival Camp will be held at Green Pastures from March 1st to 5th 2025. Any people or churches who are able to help with this would be greatly appreciated as each person needs to pay 37 pounds to cover food, workers, cleaning materials, swimming pool materials etc. and not all can afford it. Please designate such gifts to the EAB treasurer with 'Carnival Camp'. Our camps are rich times of fun, food, fellowship, sport, swimming and Bible teaching, with a total of 7 services of praise and worship to the Lord. Please pray for the Carnival Camp. 🙌

Our crashed car has been in repairs for over 4 weeks now but we are hoping it might be returned this week. A new radiator had to come from São Paulo so this held things up. We had an insurance car for 2 weeks in which we travelled for ministry to Joao Pessoa and Juru.

I have just completed 2 years of physical exercises in the Gym for an hour every Tuesday and Thursday. On the other 5 days I do a routine of exercises with 15 minutes on an exercise bike, 30 stand-ups and hands raised, 30 tip-toes to exercise the calf muscles and 30 pelvic elevations. On Friday afternoons I do a 3 km walk at Green Pastures. Keeping fit is an essential part of keeping well.

Last night we went out for a family pizza together to celebrate our granddaughter Alice's acceptance to university to study psychology. Well done Alice!
