Last day in September...

The other day I got this picture os a T-rex eating popcorn in our living room. Very rare even in Brazil! All is well in the Pereira's house other than usual international incidents 4 boys can get into. Telma and I are fine.

We are getting ready to receive an Alaskan who will be not only taking part in next weeks trip but also helping do some work on the Salvation Express bus. The floor has some rotten spots in it and needs to be changed. This will be a big help since the task is not as expensive as it is labor consuming.

Our next missions trip will be from the 9th to the 16th of October to the Jequitinhonha area. Our goal is to work mostly on evangelism. We are taking a team of five youth with a mission staff and a lot of Bible donations from the Brazilian Bible Society.

PLease be praying for all these activities.

Salvation Express organizing...

This week we are busy organizng all the donations recieved by the Salvation Express. A lot of clothing was donated last week and needs to be re-packaged and seperated for the specific area it will be going to. These donations will be taken in two trips scheduled for October and November to two different areas. We are slowly getting volunters for these trips since they will last 7 days, a little longer than normal.

The Brazilian Bible Society is sending us a shipment of Bibles that should arrive this week. These are in very easy Portuguese and have huge letters, making it easy for simple folk to read.

Telma and the boys are doing well. Yesterday we went to a mountain closeby to have a picnic with some friends, it was great! We had an awesome view from the mountaintop. It reminded us that the most awesome things in life God gives to us for free!
