my brother in law passed away today

[Sister Alvear]

My sister´s husband died today. They tried to reach me all day on my cell phone but we were at Brother Thompson´s minister’s seminar and my cell phone does not pick up there. My sister said if I can come to the states she will have the funeral Wednesday giving me time to get home. I feel she needs me but to have money to buy an emergency ticket leaving Brazil.
God knows what is best and I told my sister I would see what I could do and God would decide. It is not a missionary need. The only thing I know to do is ask you to pray and if you should feel to help me please send it to and an e mail to me so I will know and I will ask the company here to wait on payment until the money clears the bank.
The ticket is 2400.00. A regular ticket cost around a lot less but buying one on the spot is much higher.
I really wish you all would help me pray for my sister at this time. There are many things I would like to share but cannot on a public forum...thanks

And by the way we had a wonderful seminar. Brother Alvear ordained 3 workers from Brother Thompson´s area.
The Lord had spoken to me to share with our workers about Queen Sheba...and the distancia she came to know more about Solomon and the name of the Lord.
It was a beautiful seminar. Pastor Hugo taught about Men´s responsibility to their families...
I feel a little exhausted but maybe Brother Thompson can write on a thread about the seminar and his beautiful piece of land where he is going to build a tabernacle...
Glad for all the young ones that have matured into wonderful missionaries!

Maybe someone would know how to get a cheaper ticket?

we're sorry to hear of your lost sister

our prayers and best are with you !


i think some airlines will give you some kind of discount if you prove it's for emergency situations- you have to have something in writing... i think.

you can also try priceline.com and name your own price

also, try hotwire.com

Thank you dear friend. I am looking online checking tickets. I live in such an out of the way place. Spiritually today was awesome. We had an awesome seminar and I am glad I did not know anything was wrong while I was there for I was able to give my best to or people to help them in days to come. We took about 130 or more people with us. We had over flows on the rented buses and our church van was a way overcrowded also along with the couple cars that went.

I only found out tonight coming home from the seminar. It is almost 1:30 am here and we have 4 hours prayer tomorrow morning with our young people and some of the sisters and I am going to fix them a meal and then we have our evening service. I am trying to find a plane ticket for Monday if I can find one I can afford. The Lord knows...our life..our plans are in His hands...

Please hold us all up in prayer. We are also supposed to baptize a group tomorrow...Lots of things going on...God is moving.

my sister had some type break down last week and they told me she screamed my name over and over to come help her...she is a backslidder...I just wish I could be there more for spiritual reasons than anything else...My heartbeat is souls..but God knows best and I trust Him and His people.

[Sister Alvear]

If anyone would feel to e mail this request to any of your friends I would appreciate it. I don´t have a lot of e mail addresses. Thanks

My prayers and thoughts are with you, Mother A...I wish I could do more...
