Prayer Matters
Today – Lunchtime
Andrew is speaking at the Christian Union at the Federal University of Santa Catarina.
Tonight – 19:30
We are going to the Cris Hotel on Joaquina beach for an evangelistic meeting of the Surfers' Mission. There is a big championship on here at the moment, and the local chapter of the mission is trying to use the moment to reach out, and also stand up on its own feet. One member of the group, Kati, is a regular at the Peregrinos, and we are going in order to support her work and witness.
Saturday – 20:00
A movement sponsored by Youth For Christ – Geração Compromisso (Commitment Generation) is being launched in Florianópolis. Andrew has been asked to preach at the event, held at the Trindade Presbyterian Church.
Sunday – 10:00 and 17:00
The Peregrinos are starting to meet on Sunday mornings, for training and for moments of definition of our direction as a church. This Sunday we will be looking in the morning at the form of our meetings, which need to grow in a certain regularity of form (not necessarily formality!) as the church grows, and for the church to grow. In the afternoon we will be returning to Romans, left before we went to the UK.
Next week
On the one hand, there is the usual work at IBE. Then a desire to visit all members of the Peregrinos to chat about the church (this has been happening over the last three weeks, but I would like to see everyone before we travel again.) And then preparations for the Encontro da Fé Reformada (Encounter of the Reformed faith) in Goiânia starting on 9 November. We fly, God willing, to Brasilia on Saturday 5 Nov, to preach there on Sunday, travelling to Goiânia on Monday. Plus Cora’s studies – she is back to the ETCW grindstone. Please pray on!
