Tuesday night, 12/23/08, we will host the last investigative Bible study of the year. These past nine weeks have been great fun as we have gotten to know these new friends better and have studied God's word together and have sought to understand better who is Jesus and why did He come. Our journey through the Gospel of Luke has been fruitful and adventurous! This week things will climax with the resurrection of Jesus. Pray with us that God will cause the truth of His word to take root in their hearts and that God will bring them to a saving faith in Jesus Christ.
We have had on average 8-10 people participating in these studies. For four of them this is their first experience of any kind studying the Bible! Praise God for the privilege and thank you Dr. Beaudreau for the case of new NIV Portuguese Bibles. These guys went nuts over having their very own Bible!!!
We hope to continue a Bible study with these families after the first of the year that will focus on growing in Christ. This will be a key developmental opportunity as I have been training one of the Brazilian couples to take over the leadership of this study! Go God! Pray with us that God will continue to draw these people to Himself and will continue to give us this great privilege of collaborating with Him as He reconciles the world unto Himself!
P.S. We need more NIV Portuguese Bibles!
