Good News Bible Church Taquari
This is Taquari today, you can see the progress we made painting the outside of the building to get it ready for the inauguration service. Heat caused us to retire early but we were able to get the painting done on Friday the day before the service. Clicking on the pictures will give you a bigger version.
First we had to paint the entire building white with a sealer so that we wouldn't need as much paint. Then the painting began.

Inauguration Service Held in Taquari
On Saturday (April 24th, 2010) we held the inauguration service for the new church building in Taquari. We had over 60 people present on this evening. It was a moment of celebration. I read from Haggai 1:8 "Go up into themountains and bring down timber and build the house, so that I amy take pleasure in it and be honored, says the Lord." This among other versus from the same book.
Pastor Samuel de Souza was present from our church in Bahia and gave the message that evening. Missionary Gordon Avey was also present and brought greetings to our congregations.
The evening was full of special choreographies, special music, praise and worship, and of course the message. After the service we had a time of fellowship as we snacked on some food and drank coca cola. God blessed us with a great evening.
Please pray that God would lead a Brazilian pastor to come and lead this new church plant.
God's blessing to you all.

Construction News for 2010
Below are some pictures of the construction that has been taking place during the end of 2009 into this year of 2010. Buildings are important, as you can imagine, for worship and educational purposes. More descriptions of the pictures follow below. If you want to see a larger version of these pictures just click on them and it should open a larger version in another window.
The above picture shows the Sunday school classrooms in the Santo Amaro neighborhood of Palmas, Tocantins. A need for a roof to stop water from seeping through the concrete ceiling was greatly needed. Two large classrooms with wall and a roof were built. Shippensburg First Church of God was responsible for a large offering that was given for this project and a big thanks to the work team from Chambersburg First Church of God and the help that they gave toward these classrooms and roof!
A balcony will be placed on the front as well as a stair case as funds become available for this project.
Work has come to a hault as funds have run out, but we are now able to be inside a much better structure in the Taquari neighborhood of Palmas, Tocantins. Funds are still needed to pay off some remaining costs that we had to get to this point if you feel led to give to that we will greatly appreciate it. Please pray for the people of the Taquari neighborhood. Pray that God would speak to their hearts that they will want to come and visit the new church, and that people may come to know Christ as their Lord and Savior.
A few more photos from Taquari follow. Once again thank you to everyone who gave to get the building to where it is today.
Photo of the staircase as it was being prepared to be poured for the actual steps, the concrete frame had already been poured when this picture was taken.
The inside as construction was coming to a close.
The concrete roof of Taquari, it is concrete because this will be the floor once we put up the second floor. This will be the next step here as it is so hard to keep these from leaking.

First service in the new church bulding in Taquari. The official inauguration service is scheduled for the end of April 2010.

Quite a difference from where we began!
