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.
Pastors from left to right Gordon, Samuel, Mike.
