So...how crazy does it get here? Well, this week we had to plan a 2 1/2 hour session for some children in a school for the Brazilian indiginous people and we were told there would be between 50-100 children. We thought that was quite a lot of children for 2 1/2 hours but proceeded anyway to produce the program. When we got to the school we discovered that we had 600 children instead! So, we prayed! It was fairly chaotic but we all had a lot of peace about it and had to improvise as we went along, because the program we had drawn up was simply not suited to so many children. It was great to see God come through in such a situation...thinking about it I'm not sure how we managed it! Maybe more detail on that another time.
We have also been to some meetings with a pastor who is famous in Brazil for his healing ministry and saw many people healed as well as many recieve Jesus as Lord. But, it was a bit strange due to the pastor's showey style...we found it a bit difficult but do not deny the Lord's anointing on His life. I (David) sometimes find it difficult to understand how such self-promoting people have such a powerful ministry. Yet, I am sure it will all become clear soon.
