Good News
We had almost despaired of Rodrigo and Lívia’s visa. When they reached 3 April with no news – a date that had been set as the end of the road, and on which they had a flight booked to the UK – we thought it was all over. But leaders at a church council meeting on that night asked Rodrigo if he would still go if the visa were to turn up in the next two months. “Two months no”, he said, “because of the lack of time to work on my English, but one month, yes.”
The visa came today. Great rejoicing. The flight has been rebooked with Varig for the 19th of this month. As it happens (!) our flat at Muster Court is presently without tenants – is this the Lord’s plan too?
Wherever they live, please pray for these hectic days prior to leaving, and then the whole process of settling in at Haywards Heath before starting the Cornhill course. Pray for rapid involvement in the life of the church, especially for the sake of much English practice!
As we say here, we are pleased of the life!

That's great news!
And so that you know that what you write is read, I took the previous post to the PM in East Grinstead last night.
