More Special Music

Here is the final special number from the conference. Pastor Evandro, our voice and music teacher, sang "Lord Here Am I."

Bible College Octet 2

Here is another special number the octet sang at the conference.

Bible College Octet

Last night was the opening meeting of the Brazilian Fundamental Baptist Mission's 10th Anniversary Conference. It was held an hour away from Curitiba, so we loaded the bible college students in 4 vehicles and took them for the opening service. Our new men's octet provided special music for the service. Of the more than 20 missionaries who have joined the board in the last 10 years, only one is not one of our graduates. We are grateful for the opportunity to train young people for the harvest. We pray that some of our current students will also surrender to the call of world wide evangelism.

Children's Christmas Presentation

Sunday morning the children's choir made their presentation. Mateus, who is almost four, seemed to keep up with them just fine.

Baptism

Tonight we celebrate both baptism and the Lord's supper. I baptized Carlos e Daniele, and young couple that will be getting married in a few weeks. It was encouraging to see the waters of baptism stirred again.

Last night we celebrated the 30th Anniversary of Victory Baptist Church. None of the founding missionaries are still on the field, but several members gave testimonies as to the impact they had in their lives. As per Brazilian custom, we had a large cake after the service! Here are the people singing "To God be the Glory."

Jan had not memorized a classical piece for performance since college. She thought she needed to be a good example for her students, so she memorized and played Hungarian Rhapsody for the Bible College Recital Friday night. (She has more grit than I do!)
