Since I last posted I have traveled to be with our friends in the Alianca two additional times. This year during our Annual Gathering will have the honor of having Odja Barros, co-pastor of the Penhiero Baptist Church in Maceio, visiting with us. Odja is studying this semester at Princeton Theological Seminary. Join us at the community meeting at thee Annual Gathering in Raleigh to discuss the new partnership that has emerged and hear updates on our progress and opportunities for partnership with churches in Brazil.
