End of School, Beginning of Summer

The Lord is so wonderful.  Thank you Lord for all you do.  You are great and greatly to be praised.

Today is my eight day in Brazil.  The Holy Spirit has been convicting and healing hearts almost every night.  Each morning is packed with about two and a half hours of Bible study after a number of worship and praise songs.  Yesterday we took clothes into the hills and mothers with their infant babies came out to get clothes.  Today we saw the families and people who came through the line for food that they receive each week.  One of the older women I saw a few days ago and I prayed for her for a few minutes and then when we saw each other it was exciting...  she grabbed my hand and kissed it! 

Tonight we will go to our sixth church.  Sunday mornings church was so powerful and the first person I prayed for, we wept.  As I left go of her, there was another one wanting me to pray for them.  I prayed and cried and then another one.  God was pouring out His love upon the people at the church and myself included.  Two or three people prayed for me as well. 

If we dont go to church at night, we normally have another two or so hours of praise and worship and Bible study.  It is great when the body comes together and voices their pains and struggles and we pray for each other. 

Please pray for strength as we continue to be filled up and then pour out Gods love to these beautiful Brazilians.  We Love You!!!

    Coach,
    I've been praying for you. May God's strength continue to fill you and may you continue to be led by His Holy Spirit. Be blessed.
