Dear friends, 

We hope this finds you enjoying God's peace. 

Please, add the following requests to your private prayers today:

* Hannah and Yasmin started a new school year. Hannah is in high school now, and new challenges will come to her. She needs to start thinking what career she wants in life. 

* Carnival week is now and the whole city gets so agitated. It's a bacchanalia at many places around. Our church will not have a spiritual retreat, so pray for safety for us all.

* I spend a lot of time driving either because of ministerial duties or family chores. 

Pray please that I maintain my focus and energy.  

* We have plans to increase the numbers of deacons and maybe ministers, 

starting this year.   May the Lord may raise the right men. 

"My soul waits in silence for God only; 

From Him is my salvation."    - Ps 62.2

Bio and Dayse,

Hannah, Yasmin, and Dara Nascimento
