Dear Praying Friends,
Thank you so much for your faithful prayers for our
vacation Bible school! We had 7 children from our city of Lagos, two were first
time visitors. It was a busy week but
blessed by the Lord. We have new
contacts with these families and we discovered during the week, that six of the
seven children who attended do not know Jesus as their Savior. We have much prayerful work ahead of us to
reach these precious children and their families for the Lord.
Earlier this year, I asked for your help with our
“Sewing for Smiles” ministry. So many of
you responded with offerings and in sending boxes with fabric remnants that
Michele now has enough for the next three years!! We are truly amazed and humbled by your
response to this need. Thank you so very
much!
A mother of one of the girls who attended our VBS
recently visited our church and stayed afterwards to ask some very insightful
questions. Please pray for Monica, that
she would continue to attend, hear the gospel and be saved.
Thank you for staying with us through thick and
thin. Thank you for your faithful
prayers and financial support. We count
it our honor to be your representatives here in southern Portugal.
Sowing the seed,
Mark Hale
