Rest…an unfamiliar word :)

So I arrived back in Santarém about 3:30am on Friday, and before I could call up my disciple I get a phone call from him asking to speak to me urgently. He is going through some marital problems, talking about and planning their divorce. Sadly, it’s just lack of maturity, as he’s only 18 or 19, and she’s only 16. I’m believing I’ll be able to talk them out of it and help them work out their differences, but I really appreciate your prayers.
On a happier note, our trip to Parintins was very successful! We felt a LOT of spiritual warfare and took extra time off from work to really pray for the city, for the church, and for each other. I believe there was a strong spiritual breakthrough during our time there and we continue to pray for that city as the “Festival of the Bull” will be held this next weekend.
We have the huge evangelistic Congresso coming up this next weekend as well where last year over 1,400 salvations in 3 nights! Right now got lots of discipleships to catch up with, lots of pastors to train in the water filters, lots of planning for the next teams coming down and interns. And thank you all for your continued e-mails, phone calls, financial support, letters, prayers, friendship, and on and on…it means the world to me! So love you all and peace out…
1st picture of one of many sculptures/paintings in the wall of the stadium in Parintins where the Feast of the Bull is held. Most of the sculptures are of historic events or myths and legends of people believe. This one is a myth of a huge snake that still exists today that has been known to sink canoes and eat some unlucky fishermen.
