The work in Maringa, Brazil - Jonathan Abel


We praise the Lord for bringing us here to start a new church last October. There were 2 families here that had moved here from other cities but wanted to continue participating in AFLC churches. God worked it out and we were able to come help with that. Now we have 8 families and other visitors that are attending our meetings in our home on Sunday afternoons. During the week we have two Bible studies in different homes. We hope to find a decent property to buy and build a church.


Prayer requests:
  • That God would strengthen the group/work here and that it would become solid, with good spiritual growth.
  • That in His time, with His wisdom and provision, we could find the right property to buy and build.
  • For health: Jonathan experiences bad back pains, and Tamba has a persistent cough that doesn't let up.
