Multipliers!!!We are thrilled to see God using those we have
mentored to continue the work we began. We alreadymentioned Marcus taking over the mentoring group. Heis also implementing many of our ideas with smallgroups in the Campinas area. Last week he and hiswife, Aretha, lead a spiritual renewal for couples thatwas a blessing to the couples who participated.
In Brasília, Alvaro and Ana Claudia lead a 24-hourmarriage retreat for 16 couples from the church there.
Alvaro and Ana have been to several of our marriageand renewal retreats and are now spreading what theyhave learned to others. 2 Tim. 2:2
Walter and Edna from our São Paulo group are alsosharing what they have received with other small groupsin their city.
Joncilei and Kária, here in Itu are very committed tothe idea of caring for ministers and church workers andwill carry on our work here. Others around Brasil arealso multiplying our work and we PRAISE God for this!!
We will be arriving in the US on Dec. 20.Our plans are to spend Xmas and New
Year´s traveling to see family and friends.We will be back in Dallas by Jan. 11 tobegin our reentry and job hunting. Pleasekeep us in your prayers as this may be thehardest transition we have attempted in allthese years of ministry. Your thoughts andprayers mean so much to us. A HUGEthank you to all of you who have kept usgoing and will continue to support us intothis next phase. We love you all dearly!!!
Our going away party
at the Itu Church.
A new soul was added to the congregation inItu. Rachel was baptized on our next to lastSunday. She and her family have beenattending for about a year. What a joy tosee God continue to add new lives to Hischurch.
This congregation has been a wonderfulhome for us these last 5 years. We were ableto come back here after working all overBrasil and Latin America and find rest,renewal, peace and friendship among His
people here.
