We had an amazing service

We had a packed out building tonight but it was the service that was so amazing. If I am not mistaken 8 people repented, several prayed through. I was called the the nursery because one woman back there was shaking in the presence of the Lord.
Something happened tonight that touched me deeply 2 pastors came and literally fell at my feet weeping thanking me for being a missionary and bringing truth to them.
Service lasted almost 4 hours. It was beautiful...
Next Sunday we are ordaining 3 or 4 more pastors and several other workers, the work is growing and God is doing things that are even new to us! Seemly impossible things are happening in our mist. Victories long sought after, prayers are being answered.
Tonight we officially sent out our son Arlei as a national missionary from our church here and recieved such a nice missionary offering for him. I KNOW people gave their bread money for we have never took up 200 hundred dollars in a service before without some big pull.
Our people know we do not have gas money for them to make the faith move and we needed that much to put with what we have to get them to Maranhao...How will they live? By faith in Him who calls...

I am going to try to have a bazar and raise money for them to buy the most needed things.

I am blessed to have children who REALLY take God at HIS word...

Sis, I know you have many people praying for you and the others involved working for God in Brazil and I am so happy to hear this report. God is able to do so much more than we can imagine. Keep sending us the updates.

Sister Alvear,

Thanks for the great report. We also had a good service at Christ Church Nashville. They baptized one in the early service and then in the second service we baptized nine so a total of 10. About half were children and half were adults including two grown men who had radical conversions coming from lives of crime, etc.
