Liz and I had a lovely meeting with pastors and leaders on Wednesday morning (see photo below) to discuss the transition of leadership for our Princesa Isabel Central, Tavares and Belém churches which will take place on July 13th. 46-year-old Pastor Robério and his wife Ana Paula will move from Tavares to Princesa Isabel Central. 43-year-old Paulino and Betânia will move from Belém to Tavares. 38-year-old Rafael Barbosa and Gerlândia will move from Princesa Isabel Bairro da Baixa, where they were assistant leaders, to Belém. Pastor Jair and his wife Silvânia were also at the meeting as pastors of Rafael Barbosa to give their blessing on the change. Please pray for these couples as they take on their new responsibilities in the work of the Lord. After our meeting we went out for a fellowship meal together in a restaurant.
A new church plant is underway at the Vila Rajada in the municipality of Tavares (PB). Please pray for this new work which is not far from Belém and the municipality of Juru.
Our granddaughter Beatriz (Bia) is in New York making lots of new friends. Her English is of course coming in handy.
Last night I led the mid-week prayer meeting and Bible study and assistant pastor Rafael brought the study from the first chapter of Nahum. We had a lovely time of prayer with many people leading in prayer. Deacon Dedé led the praise and worship and Espedita and Vasti sang solos. It was a good service.
