PRAYER/NEWS LETTER
February
& March 2010
Dear Co-Laborers in Christ,
We praise the Lord for His love, grace, power and
continual presence as we work together with Him. This year Judy and I
will celebrate our 36th year as missionaries in Brazil. Much has been
accomplished, but there is much more to be done. Pray for our Lord to
call others to labor for souls here in this needful country.
The Bible Baptist Church in Barretos had a great
Vacation Bible School in January with an average daily attendance of 102
and 112 in Sunday School and 12 professions of faith in Jesus Christ. We
thank our Lord for giving us faithful and dedicated workers who worked
so hard in very hot and humid weather. Thank you Lord!
In February all our area churches had their annual
Youth Camps in several different locations. All were tremendous blessing
to everyone who attended. The Bible Baptist Church in Barretos went to a
camp sponsored by the Independent Baptist Church in Formiga, Minas
Gerais, which is a five hour drive from Barretos. The daily average
attendance of this camp was 210 and there were 22 professions of faith
in Jesus Christ.
One of our young men, Luan, surrendered his life to
Christ for full time Christian service as a pastor or missionary. Pray
for Luan to remain faithful to his commitment to the Lord and for all
his needs to be met as he enrolls in the Bible Baptist Institute.
Our daughter, Cindy, arrived in Brazil on the 6th of
March for a two week visit and vacation. Our son, Jody, took Cindy and
Judy on a trip to Rio de Janeiro for a tour of all the tourist
attractions. They saw and did all they could do in ONE day and returned
to Barretos exhausted.
Judy's health has continually improved and she has
returned to her normal activities. Thank you so much for your prayers on
her behalf. Please continue to pray for our health and ministry here in
Brazil. We are so grateful for your prayer and financial support. Without
either, our work here would not be possible. Thank you!
In Christ Jesus,
Lanny and Judy Wood
