New Caruaru Christians

 
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.

"What About Baptism?"

Edda and I went to a nearby city to study the Bible with a family, Genilda (who is already a Christian), Ana, Mariana, Luiza, and Jefferson. While we were reading God's Word, Ana's husband, Silva, came in and sat down, and then blurted out: "What about baptism?" It took me by surprise because he has barely studied with us, but, most certainly, is already thinking about spiritual matters. Our Bible study then took a lot of detours, answering this question or that. Silva said he still has a lot of questions, and we pray that the Lord will use us to answer them, bringing him to understand the Good News!

Weekend VBS

           The end of April, my wife, Monica, traveled to Patos with the AME (Adventures in Evangelistic Missions) group to have VBS with the church there.  It was the first VBS for the AME class and for the church in Patos, the first one in about 10 years.              Monica said that there were 24 children on the first day and 26 on the second.  It was a weekend VBS, Saturday morning, afternoon and Sunday morning.              They also did a campaign around the church building inviting people to the VBS, the church meeting, and an adult class on Friday night.  They also had a couples meeting as well as a youth group meetings happening in between other activities.              Needless to say, they were pretty busy.  They all came back exci...

One More Goodbye

This year has been rough for Borges's family. They lost a pillar in their family, his wife's mother in February. Now her brother has passed, buried today. He was diagnosed with prostrate cancer 18 months ago. A policeman, used to taking care of the family, he had to settle with being taken care of by the family as his body gradually shut down when the cancer metastasized to his bones. Borges and Geilza have spent every free moment taking care of Demilson's needs, and it has been torture watching him slowly wear away. His colleagues in the Military Police carried his casket, played taps on a trumpet, presented his family with a Paraiba flag, and thanked his family for supporting him in defending society for nearly thirty years. It was a nice gesture, but the event that gives us believers hope in the face of death is Jesus winning over the grave. He is our certainty that a grave is not the end.
