Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
The LORD our God is powerful!
To Him all honor and all glory!

Our God is truly marvelous. We have completed what we started last year.
In March of 2009, we challenged the brethren of all Brazil to raise R$ 40,000 (approximately $22,200).
And in the past 12 months, brothers and sisters have responded positively.

    We made it! Glory to God!!!!

We have today R$ 40,170 committed for the sending of a church planting team to Campina Grande.
Raniere Vieira and I went to São Paulo to participate in the ENOC and CRE events. We went there to complete what was proposed 12 months before to raise this money for 2010.

We thank the brethren for completing the goal. We thank God for their willingness.

Please, beloved, continue to pray for this work, that more will want to participate in reaching a city for Christ, for the campaign for 2011 has begun.

Hallelujah! Thank you, Lord!

The Second Generation, Part II

In 1993 when we came in contact with a young struggling couple in Caruaru, Paulo and Simone, we never imagined what plans God had in store for them. Now 18 years later (Wow, has it been that long?), after conversion, ups and downs, growing pains, working to further the Kingdom and living it, they have had the pleasure to witness the beginning of their daughter's life in Christ. Juliana (age ten) was baptized by her older brother, Jheymerson, who was also ten years old when he gave his life to Jesus. What a wonderful blessing to have one's whole family saved in Christ! Maria and Cícero were also converted when we lived in Caruaru, though single at the time. They dated and got married, the ceremony performed by yours truly. Maria has been faithful to Jesus all these years though going through several difficulties. Cícero, on the other hand, fell away, but came back and renewed his life and his marriage, and now, along with Juliana, his daughter Vitória (age ten) was baptize...

Thank You, Patrick

By
February 28, 2011 was a tragic day for the McKinney family: Patrick, our friend and companion of four years, died. He was our pet cockatiel. A cockatiel can live up to twenty-five years, but Patrick's life was cut short when he got stepped on.     On the day,  intense grief cut short my breath, like a stone weighed on my sternum, blocking the air. The kids were devastated, and I couldn`t talk to anybody without my eyes tearing up.     I was embarrassed - I had to cancel the visits and Bible study I had lined up that day. I had comforted that very week three people, one who lost a father, and two who lost mothers, and here I was all torn up over a stupid bird. I was ashamed.     But then again, he wasn`t just a stupid bird. Patrick woke up every morning whistling the Brazilian national anthem. In his own way, he ruled the house, using his cage only for meals or to sleep. He was a bird free to come and go as he pleased - you`d think he ...
