EAB Updates

There are 2 types of EAB Updates. The first, which most people receive, is a brief monthly resumé of EAB's work with photos which we call the EAB Nutshell Update. Get it? Brazil - where all the nuts come from! We put the news in a nutshell! The second usually doesn't have photos and is a transcript of this blog. This now is also monthly and we call it the EAB Diary Update.

Now we are obliged by EU law to get permission from people, who have been receiving the updates for years, and praying for and supporting EAB for yonks, to get their permission to continue informing them about the work!

So PLEASE reply to the e-mails I have sent to everyone asking for consent! I mean how could you live without EAB? If you don't reply we can't send!

Send emails to eabrazil@gmail.com

Anyone wanting to join the happy EAB updates list that isn't yet on it - just send us an email too please. 

EAB supporters! Please spread the word about EAB monthly Updates and God bless you all real good!

EAB GDPR emails all sent out

I have nearly gone crazy (no rude comments please!) sending out emails one by one to all on our mailing list. I sent each one individually and noted down the names so that I can tick those who reply positively. It took me one and a half days! I am glad it is done. People are replying. I will wait a few days and then write a new EAB Nutshell Update which I will send to all who reply as I cannot send to those who don't reply.

I will also need help getting permission from the remnant of snailmail update folk who receive a monthly postal update. These are folk advanced in years and the list steadily is shrinking as some do join the internet brigade and others join the celestial brigade! Some of these faithful prayer warriors and supporters are approaching three figures in age!

I'd love to organize a small group of young folk to visit the work here next year to see if we could start an EAB teens and twenties group to shake UK interest up a bit. Contact me if you are interested at eabrazil@gmail.com 

Brazil is in one big mess!

The tankers strike goes on and on and on - but of course it is not a tankers strike at all anymore but is a manipulated attempt to bring about a Coup D'état. We are now encircled by lawless gangs in Patos that block the roads and cut off the population from food supplies etc. The BBC is waking up more to the matter and is a bit more energetic in today's report talking about the death of 70 million chickens, for example, which died of hunger as their feed was not allowed to them! The country has gone mad! The situation is very dangerous. Please pray.

Brazil in massive crisis!

The country is in uproar! The government gives in to the strikers in everything but the strike doesn't end! Supplies of everything you can imagine are running out including food, medication etc. Travel is virtually impossible as you can't get petrol. The strike is now in its second week. Please pray. 

See what the BBC says today which is a very timid report but better than nothing. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-44275782

For me a Coup D'état is clearly the aim of mainy involved in this uprising. Please pray!

Government gives in to strikers

After church last night I heard President Temer announce on TV that he had agreed to all the demands of the petrol tanker drivers who have been on strike for a week and paralysed the country. Even funerals were being stopped! Absolute chaos and anarchy. Now it remains to be seen if in practice the strike is over as announced.

Latest edition of EAB's magazine available

That was the week that was!

Wow! What a week! The EAB Field Conference was great but it only happened by the skin of its teeth! This is because of the Petrol tankers' drivers' strike now a week old and continuing! Some how our folk managed to get to the Conference at Green Pastures and it was greatly blessed. PTL! The whole event was wonderful!

However the strike carries on and it is holding the country to ranson. Food starts to run out in shops, doctors and nurses can't get to hospitals, schools will be shut down this week and so it goes on. It is an horrific situation. Please pray.

The service tonight in Patos was very good.

Liz continues to be a lot better in health. PTL!
