I only have a few minutes

Am at a Library using their internet. We are working with a group of spanish people and one has already been baptized.
I guess all know the happenings in Brazil...our son was robbed...our car and the car we just sold. He had gone to the bank to pick up the money...

However this weekend that I know about 23 people in Brazil recieved the Holy Ghost. We are getting ready to baptize another trinity group from yet another city. One of our son's just baptized a Nazerene pastor in Jesus name. No wonder the devil does not like us...

I am thinking of this song...

He giveth more grace as our burdens grow greater,
He sendeth more strength as our labors increase;
To added afflictions He addeth His mercy,
To multiplied trials he multiplies peace.
When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
When our strength has failed ere the day is half done,
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources
Our Father’s full giving is only begun.
His love has no limits, His grace has no measure,
His power no boundary known unto men;
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus
He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again.

Thank you. Yes, they are better. Or getting there. At least Keith didn't have to end up serving more time. They handled it "unofficially" so he has no permanent record. Those are positives. I appreciate your prayers so much!
