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.
*
