Dear Praying Friends,                                                                                                                                                             Feb.- Mar. 2005

Greetings in the name of our Marvelous Lord. We have returned back to Brazil. We would like to thank everyone who prayed for our trip back. God was gracious and carried us on His wings back home. We found the church well and thank the Lord for the work of the three deacons who were left in the leadership of the church. We have been very busy since our return and would like to share with you what the Lord has been doing.

We have seen two men come to the Lord, Carlos and Isaiah. We thank the Lord for their salvation and ask you to pray for the salvation of Carlos’s wife and for spiritual growth of both of these men.

We have started a new semester in the Institute and thank the Lord for the fourteen students He has given us. Please pray for spiritual growth, preparation for the ministry and development of character in the lives of these students. Please also pray for the open air services that the students will conduct this semester that God will be pleased to save souls as a result of the preaching of His word.

We thank the Lord for the work that has gone on at the new congregation in Jacuipe. We have one lady who is ready to be baptized. Please pry for Anna and the salvation of her husband. Last week work n Jacuipe had the privilege to hear a national missionary present his field and consider him for support. We praise the Lord for this important step and growth that we are seeing in this work. Please continue to pray for the weekly radio program that it will be a means of seeing souls saved in Jacuipe and the surrounding communities.

We thank the Lord each day for each one of you who prays and gives that we may serve the Lord here in Brazil. We remain…..

                                                                                                                                                                        Yours in the white fields,

                                                                                                                                                                       The Brims
