6th Men's Retreat

I have been at Green Pastures taking part in the 6th Men's Retreat of our Campina Grande - Catolé church, with 84 men taking part. (photo below) The theme of the retreat is 'prayer: the necessity and fundamental responsibility of every man of God'. Pastor Wostenes taught on prayer whilst I was there, after which I had meal with Pastor Wostenes and had a good discussion about the work of the Lord. It was lovely to see so many men in one place seeking God.

I saw Picui Ground-Doves, Caatinga Cacholotes, a Turkey Vulture, Great Kiskadees and Burrowing Owls whilst at Green Pastures.

QPR ended the season on a winning note with a 1 x 0 victory away to Sunderland, so they end the season in 15th place in the Championship out of 24.

Yesterday morning we had a church business meeting and all went off well.

Over 2 million people attended a free Lady Gaga concert on Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro at the weekend where police thwarted a bomb attack and arrested the would-be perpetrators. 

Our grandson Arthur has flown back to Japan from South Korea.

I led the main service of the week last night in Patos which was a beautiful communion service with the church full to capacity.
