New Caruaru Christians

By
 
As reported by Paulo Rodrigues:

We give thanks to God for using the brethren in Caruaru to announce the gospel of salvation to the lost that find themselves in our city.

Tomas and Laura are children of Christians. Here are Tomas with his mother Leda and Laura with her mother Luciana.

This is the family of Pedro and Ione, and now their son Pierre is part of the Christian family. This family came to Christ through the work of handing out pamphlets from door to door.

We have two more give their lives to Christ: Stefane and Gil, but unfortunately we didn't have a camera handy at the time.


Aelson and Joseane are a wonderful couple who have opened their home for a group Bible study.

 
Glory to God for having reached Karla. She lived a life of prostitution, mas now lives only for Christ. We have come to know little of her life and are certain of the miracle God is doing in her.

David and Adriana McKinney have recently been with the Caruaru congregation and taught a seminar there.

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.

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 ...
