On Sunday morning many people from the church met to distribute tracts in the neighborhood. We had a pretty good turn out. About 15 people went out into the streets passing out tracts, inviting people to church, etc. The children continued with their normal Sunday school classes and Melissa taught so that the teachers could go out into the neighborhood. After we finished, everyone met back at the church and prepared a lunch. It was a great time! Please pray for fruit to come from this effort of spreading the Gospel. During the morning, I and another man (Raimundo) went to the feira (market). We stood at the entrance where he and I passed out 800 tracts between the two of us in about 1 hour 15 minutes. It was great. I ran in to a teen guy, Diego (18) who had come through a medical clinic at the church 1 1/2 years ago. At the time, I hardly spoke much Portuguese. But we both recognized one another and spoke for a while. He listened to the Gospel and promised to come to church, stating he was young but needed it. Please pray for Diego to keep his commitment to come to church where he will definitely hear the Gospel message again.
