World Bible
School studies the Bible with thousands of
people around the world through correspondence and the internet. Since the
studies were in English, we haven't used their material much, but now WBS has
translated everything into Portuguese, so we have a new resource for spreading
God's Word. Currently WBS has about thirty students waiting for a
Portuguese-speaking teacher. And if we start advertising, they will have many
more. So brush up on your Portuguese and sign up as a teacher - it's simple.
Log on to www.worldbibleschool.net and click on the Become a Teacher button. Be
sure to choose Portuguese as your language if indeed you know it. If not, they
always can use English speakers too. I am excited about this new avenue: not
only can be our mission partners through prayers and funds, but also as Bible
teachers of contacts in Paraiba. May God open
up each students to His Word as he or she seeks His Will!
Emesson started coming to Bible Club over a year ago, when Neil Schultz and Cait Beckloff, our AIM team, were teaching it. For several months, they planted the seed in his and his sister's hearts. Unfortunately Neil and Cait's time in João Pessoa ended. In 2014 Bible Club received a boon when Erick and Jenny Paddy, former AIMers, returned to the field and picked up teaching the Bible Study for English speakers. They watered the sprouting seed in Emesson's life until God's Word became more important for him than just practicing his English. Last Wednesday night, God gave the increase, adding Emesson to the Family of Christ. Sometimes things don't happen when we think they should, but God is in control; His time is best, and we must thank Him for playing a small part in His plan.
