Dear
friends and prayer warriors,
Greetings
from your coworkers to the Portuguese-Speaking World!
The
month of October was full of activities!
(Click on the pictures to enlarge them!)
October
is Children’s Month in Brazil and Oct 12 is Children’s National Day. For this
reason we had many Children Outreaches in October.
Children Outreach at Mursa – Varzea Paulista Oct 6.
Children Outreach at Sao Mateus Church Oct 13.
Children Outreach at Campo Limpo Paulista Church Oct 14.
Children Outreach at Jundiai Church Oct 21.
On the first weekend of Oct., the churches in Southeast
promoted a Women’s Retreat in Campinas.
Saturday Oct 13 the Elders and wives from Campo Limpo
Paulista and Jundiai Churches met at Jundiai Church to pray together seeking
God’s will for the churches before the elders meet to plan 2013.
The Sao Mateus Church promoted a Women’s Tea on Saturday
afternoon, Oct 27.
On Saturday night, Oct 27, the Sao Mateus Church Youth
Group did a Youth Outreach at one of the squares close to the church. At this
square many young people get together to play soccer, and for other activities;
however, many that hang around there at night are drug users. The Sao Mateus
Church Youth Group intends to promote an outreach at this square every month.
Please, pray for them!
The “Hands On” Bible College had classes on
Oct 6! We need your prayers and support to keep on with the “Hands On” Bible
College in 2013. Students will be graduating in June and we have new students
that are starting! It is a priority for us to develop strong Bible base
leadership for the churches in Brazil and for the future missionaries to the
Portuguese-Speaking World for this reason the “Hands On” Bible College it is
vital for BRoLM and for the Kingdom of God! Thanks for your support!
October
this year was the last month of school in Mozambique; they do not have classes
Nov-Jan because of the rainy season. This year the Hope School had 1053
students, and registrations for 2014 start in Nov. Before the rainy season all
the church leaders, wives and members from the 64 villages’ churches got
together in Oct. for the National Leadership Conference. This is a major event
every year; the theme this year was "God’s Call" (Isaiah 6:8).
This year Juracema has devoted a lot of her time to
working with the Macua women; she meets weekly with, them and she is very happy
with the results.
Thanks for your prayers for Monica…
Your
prayers and support make it possible for Brazil River of Life to continue to
reach the Portuguese-Speaking World for Christ. Thank you very much!
God is good, all the
time; and He is acting among us!
In HIS Love and
Service,
Jeff & Monica Fife
