Dear friends in Christ,

As usual we share here some prayer requests for you to bring before the Father:

* Rain—exactly one week ago we had in our metropolitan area a torrential rain accompanied by a lighting storm like we have never seen before! There were 173 trees uprooted, car accidents and lots of debris. In the same day another city in the interior experienced rain with hail.
Keep praying that these rains may reach far deep into the interior of our region, where it’s still most needed.  Watch this video (in Portuguese) mainly after 03’05”

* Job and new school—this week Dayse and the girls started at their new job/school. It’s a new routine for all of us, mainly for Yasmin. She is loving the school, but it’s quite demanding for her. Pray that we may have strength and wisdom for necessary adjustments.

* Theology Course—in a parallel ministry that I support, we are officially starting a Theology track at the end of February. We agreed on the subjects and books, and we should start advertising next week. Along with another missionary, we will be teaching the very first classes soon. The main purpose of these classes is to launch the basis of theological understanding for future ministers. Pray please for guidance for both of us and my upcoming classes (OT Overview, Apologetics, and God and Philosophy).

* Carnival—tonight Carnival officially starts and tomorrow most of our church in São Lourenço goes to a retreat camp. We earnestly request your prayers for safety for those who will retreat, for those who have to stay in town, and for those joining the throngs in the streets!      Brazilian Carnival is a far lewder version of Mardi Gras.


In Him,
Bio and Dayse Nascimento


The Spirit and the Bride say, "Come."
And let the one who hears say, "Come."
And let the one who is thirsty come;
let the one who desires take the water of life without price.
