Week 34

Last week I started another course at the "Escola da Bíblia," at the downtown church. This time I am teaching the Book of Psalms. Teaching the Pentateuch was a great experience.
The Torah teaches ethical values that instructs us how to live orderly and how to please God, whereas Psalms teach us how to cry, rejoice, and give thanks. The Psalter is a book of prayer and of tears before the Father, who understands so well our diversity of emotions.
There is a good number of students and some of them haven't found a church to worship.
-- Pray this course will be as fruitful as the past ones.

  2. Sounds like things are going well there. I was looking at a picture of your girls on your blog and they are soooo big now. Matt is working on a picture album from our first year in Salvador and picking out pictures from our trip to Recife and it made us miss you very much. Are you coming to the conference here in January? Was it good to see Gari and Karen and the kids? Are they okay these days?
