Big Water

On Friday we will be travelling to Água Grande (Big Water) where I will be preaching at the inauguration service of the new well drilled and equipped for the community. Água Grande is about a 4 hour drive south-west of where we live in Patos and is in the municipality of Santana de Mangueira. It is in the region of our Caroá, Mandacaru, Pinheira and Manaira churches. The well produces 1,000 litres of water per hour and attends 134 very needy people.

Sadly a man was killed in João Pessoa after climbing into the lions' enclosure at the zoo! I have just learnt that the man had mental problems so that is very sad.

We are listening to beautiful Christmas Carols sung by the choir of King's College, Cambridge. I love these carols and this choir! How about you?

I have now finished my résumé of the 17th book of the Bible, Esther, so I've now covered 36.7% of the Bible's chapters. I now move on to Job, with 42 chapters, and Psalms with 150 chapters. When I finish these next 2 books I'll be over the half way point of the whole Bible.

    Ficamos felizes por Água Grande, onde tivemos o enorme prazer de conhecer aquela região. Que maravilha Pr. John.

    Sobre o caso do jovem, realmente chocou e vem repecurtindo bastante. Mas, infelizmente tem muito mito em torno do fato, Há uma entrevista bem esclarecedora do Biológo e especialista Richard Rasmussen ele é uma autoridade e profundo conhecedor do mundo animal. segue link pra quem desejar assistir:

    Obrigado Pr. John pelo espaço pra os comentários.
