I was thrilled to get coworker Shawn's latest " Monday Update " . He related how that a new church has started in Sorocaba! The picture shows a good group of believers from three of our churches gathering for the dedication service. My excitement came as I realized the location of that new church. It is the Habiteto ministry that the Lord allowed me to be a small part of about two years ago. Back then as Alexandre was just starting his ministry with children in that part of town there wasn't much support for his efforts. He had a good group of workers that helped him every week. My part was that of helper and van driver. Driving was critical because it allowed most of the workers to get to that remote part of town. Another blessing from Shawn's update was that the team has asked a young couple to consider the possibility of candidating at Hope. Pray with us that God will help them to follow His leading. That is Alexandre at the far right of the photo below. Please
