Taquari Service Well Received

The church of Santo Amaro closed its doors on Saturday to hold its normal Saturday evening services in Taquari. A group of 25 church members traveled the 20 minutes to the other side of Palmas . This group spent the afternoon passing out tracts and inviting people to come to the church service that would be held in front of a school. God blessed us that afternoon and evening with sun and lots of it. As we have entered into winter here in this part of Brazil a shower or long rain storm is not unusual. The group began inviting people to the service at 3:00 PM and we returned to the house of Gideão to get cleaned up and eat some hotdogs before the eveninging service. At 8:00 PM the service began and 50 people were present to hear the message that evening. Pastor Walter Santos was present from our church in Bahia and spoke that evening. We pray that the seeds planted that evening will begin to grow in the hearts of those who came. Please be in prayer for another family's house to hold our services at, as the current location is a bit far from the where most of the people live.
