Dear friends and prayer supporters in Christ,

Here are some prayer requests for you to bring before our Father:

* Thanksgiving – it has been 10 years now in June since we returned from Abilene, TX, and I finished my studies at ACU. I want to give thanks to a number of people from Oak Hills Church whose names have been a constant support to our lives since early 2002! Also, I would like to express my deepest appreciation to a number of professors from ACU who impacted my life and my theological thinking during those intense years of study.

* Pray please for the students in the classes I have been teaching since February—Apologetics, Basic English [Gospel of Mark], and the Spiritual World. I should conclude these classes by the end of May. Pray that the lessons will be good not just to their heads but their hearts as well.

* Last weekend we had our second Homiletics Training Seminar for new servant-leaders from some of our churches. Pray as we prepare a new generation of servants, that they may be capable of publicly speaking anywhere.

* Drought continues in some parts of Brazil and it is severe here in the Northeast. The raining season has begun but no strong rains so far.

* Dayse and I would appreciate your prayers on behalf of Hannah's decision on what degree she should pursue in college or even if she should put it on hold for while until she makes up her mind.

* Finally, pray please that I may use words wisely.

Abundant blessings upon you all,

Bio and Dayse Nascimento

But what we are is known to God,

and I hope it is known also to your conscience.”
