We want to thank you for your faithfulness in praying for and financially supporting the missionary work in Brazil. Our two sons, Juan and David, stayed in Brazil to take care of the churches while I came to the U.S. to be with my wife and children and take care of their health. I thank God that our family is doing much better.
I am also thankful for the more than 40 souls we have been able to reach for Christ. All of them are a blessing. We were able to visit the family of Sister Luceleni. She was always worried about her brother-in-law, her nephew, and her sister; and we had the opportunity to share the Gospel with them. All three of them accepted Christ as their Saviour. Please pray that they can stay in the church, although they live far away.
We also had the opportunity to talk to a couple who had a Satanic appearance on their clothing, but thank God, the Lord did not send us to criticize people but to evangelize them. We were able to present the Gospel to them, and both of them asked Christ for salvation. The young man thanked me for showing them the way of salvation. It is a joy to be able to talk to people about the love of God.
We were able to reach 44 people in these months in Brazil. Pray for our sons, Juan and David, who are taking care of the 2 churches while we are here in the United States.
We had the opportunity to evangelize 6 Americans, 4 Hispanics, 2 Guatemalans, 1 Mexican, and 1 Puerto Rican. On Halloween, we were able to evangelize 2 adults: a lady who was almost 80 years old (whom our son Micah, who is almost 14 years old, evangelized) and a 50-year-old woman who is now the wife of Timothy (a convert of ours from 12 years ago). It’s a blessing. God does not get tired of forgiving and saving sinners.
Please pray because we had a cyclone in Brazil, and this is the third consecutive year that this has happened. Last year, the wall fell on us. We had to fix 30 meters of it because of 3 trees that fell on the wall. This was in the second church. This year, the roofs of both churches were damaged and need to be replaced. Please pray that God provides a special offer to be able to fix and pay the person who will do the work and replace the roofs, which are 8 meters long by 1.20 meters wide. That will cost around $2,500 for both churches.
Please continue praying for our visits to other churches. Pray for the protection of Juan and David, who are in Brazil. Pray for my wife and our other children also. Pray that God provides the finances to pay for what the insurance does not cover regarding our health needs.
Thank you for your faithfulness, and thank you for your faithful support and your prayers. God bless you!
In the service of God,
The Vallejo Family
