April-May 2010

New Arrival-
Baby Joshua has arrived. He was born on May 28th at 5:30 in the morning. He weighed 6 lbs 8 oz and was 21 inches long. We praise the Lord for this wonderful gift that He has given us. Thank you for praying for him. Ingrid and Joshua are both doing great.

In Arcos -
We praise the Lord that Pastor Weber’s job has finally been transferred to Arcos. This will allow him more time for soul-winning and discipleship. Over the last two months there have been many souls saved. I have been able to lead two people to the Lord . One was a young man named Samuel.  Please pray for Samuel that he would grow in the Lord. Also, pray that his father would allow him to come to church.

Meeting in Itapecerica –
We had a great opportunity to preach the gospel in another city. The city of Itapecerica is about an hour from Arcos. One of the families that was attending faithfully in Arcos has moved to Itapecerica. There is no church in Itapecerica. So he invited us to come and hold a service in his home. We had 16 people there for the meeting. Please pray that God would use the Word which was preached to reach those in Itapecerica. .

Our permanent visa-
Pray for our visa. We are in the final stages of receiving our permanent visa. Please pray that it would be approved quickly. With the arrival of Joshua, we will have another route to obtain a permanent visa if our current process isn’t approved.
