Balloon

8 people have been killed in a hot air balloon accident in the southern state of Santa Catarina in Brazil. There were 13 survivors from the accident. The balloon caught fire and fell to the ground.

Please pray for Jozilene and Toinho - a couple that had premature twin girls on April 28th called Sofia and Safira. Sofia is already home, but Safira is still in intensive care in the maternity hospital. This family is part of our São Mamede church. I married them 10 years ago.

On Saturday we spent over 5 hours at the Youth Conference at Green Pastures and what a joy it was to see the meeting hall full with 213 young people praising the Lord. After the service there was a competition for the best fancy dress and then they had a game of bingo with a variety of little prizes for the winners. On the way there I saw a Pigmy Nightjar and a Burrowing Owl.

Last night I both led the service and preached God's word in Patos. Numbers were down owing to the youth conference and the general festive period. Nevertheless it was a good service.
