Can you help us pray over the next two weeks for these four?  They need to be Covid-free to make the trip from Sobradinho in Bahia to the big city of São Paulo and on to the Peniel Bible Institute in Jacutinga, Minas Gerais.  Classes start in early February.  Students have been asked to arrive early.  These four have tickets for January 25th. Each one also needs around US$200 a month to pay for food and housing for the year of training.  Some gifts have already come in, and Felipe has funds in his account leftover from last year.  When classes went online, he did not have to pay since costs at the institute are not for tuition, just for eating and sleeping. Each one of these four are active church members looking to serve the Lord with their lives in missions.  Byron and I will miss them greatly over the next year.  They have all been helping us in our interior work. Felipe is a returning student.  He completed the one year program and decide...

Byron and I were able to go to the wedding of two special young people this past Saturday in the city of Fortaleza.  Our oldest son, William, came down from the USA for the big event.  We've known Vinicius since he was a young teen.  He is a dedicated Christian young man.  Nayara and he will make a wonderful couple.  Both want to serve the Lord with their lives.  They met on a missions trip with Wordless Ministries in the Amazon. Here we are with William in the middle,  and the parents of the groom. We had a grand time getting to be with William for the weekend.  The time was short, but we definitely filled it with quality moments, and with masks!
