LET’S PRAY… for our missionaries and their families in Brazil. for people who believe in spiritism and serve other gods, that they will see that God is greater. for the pastors and Christians as they reach out to their neighbors and to other parts of the country. for the kids. About 10 million kids live on the streets. Many have parents who are drug addicts or alcoholics. They all need to hear about Jesus!
