"Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,"
2 Cor. 2:12.
Greetings! This year seems to be flying past so quickly! We have lots of news to update you on here in this letter. God has really been good to us through the trials that come our way. We know that He has a purpose for it and we try our best to remember those promises when they come.
Our pastorīs retreat was indescribable...Over 800 people were present and we baptized 2 people for our night services were open to all.
This month my wife and I visited our church in the city of Ribeirao Preto and 2 people got the Holy Ghost the night we were there. The church was packed out.
This month we started a new preaching point in a village called Monte Cristo. We have 22 people coming regularly and one person has already received the Holy Ghost. In the city of Itobi we had a fellowship meeting. We took 60 people from our church along with the 400 or so that were already there the building was super packed.
We have 25 attending our new convertīs class in our Campinas church and a Nazarene preacher has asked to sit in our classes to learn what our church teaches.
This month I baptized two at the Proenca church. They receive every word I speak like a dry sponge. These new converts are so hungry for the gospel.
Village after village, people are coming to the Lord every day, here in Brazil. Our vision is to go into more cities, hills and valleys to proclaim the good news of salvation to the thousands who have never heard about the name of Jesus.
The Sao Carlos church baptized 3 precious souls and has 4 more ready for baptism. The Franca church has started their 3rd church this month.
We are starting a work in a city called Bebedouro. In fact we already have a pastor there looking for a building for us to rent.
We are working on the new wing to our headquarters church.
And on and on...so many projects all over Brazil so many hands reaching out for help.
The Bible talks about the two kingdoms that are now at war, the Kingdom of Light and the Kingdom of darkness. As we fight in this great spiritual war we need your back up in prayers. As you help us we will continue to penetrate the dark kingdom bringing souls into this marvelous light.
With the economy the way it is things are so uncertain however I encourage you to reach out to these souls and worthy projects and the Great Bookkeeper will mark it all down for your future blessings.
"Fear not" trample upon evil powers with your Iron shoe and shoe of brass: (
Deut 33:24-26)
We are continuing to train soul-winners...as you help us we will help others to find the Lord Jesus.
Please be much in prayer for the many visitors that come to our services and that they might be saved.
We are continuing to train soul-winners...the harvest is so white..
SO I END MY LETTER TO YOU THIS MONTH SAYING, " ONWARD CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS"!
BECAUSE OF CALVARY!
