"Train a child in the way he should go,
       and when he is old he will not turn from it."
Proverbs 22:06

Greetings from Lar Batista, Brasil!

I am really glad to be writing again and let you know that we are doing well here at Lar. Our summer break is over, but we had some great moments. We got to go to the pool with a visiting team who came over Christmas and we made some good memories which will last forever.

Now we are getting back t o the normal rhythm of the family with school starting. We will have a lot of work and as usual, I count on your prayers for each child and their studies. Some of the children demand special assistance and I am working with them.  Of course every student needs prayer, but please keep Bruno Donaire, David Bruno, Beatriz, Gabriela and Geisson in your prayers as they study extra hard.

It is very important for us to know that you are praying for each one of us. We have a lot for which to be thankful!

Our children are enjoying their studies and some have been transferred to different schools, many remain where they were. Their amount of hours and work load have increased and our children are also involved in extracurricular classes offered by our local government. We are glad to see the girls learning to play the keyboard twice a week and the boys have guitar lessons, also twice a week.

Cheiyenne, Beatriz and Gustavo are taking Spanish! As you can see, their days are really full and so is mine. Each one of the extracurricular classes send home more homework but I am glad to be able to assist them! All of these classes are offered free of charge and we are taking advantage of them as much as we can. We also have some children in private English school. It is always hard for us to afford that, but God has provided, one way or another. God has blessed me for that.

We also have youth group on Saturdays and George has been leading daily devotions before School for all the children. We know that this is the most important  thing they will take from their experience here.

I hope to be able to report on the success of the children, because that is also my desire to see them doing well and also praising the Lord with their music! Please keep us all in your prayers.

This is all for now but I will be back soon! God be with you!

In Christ love,

Rute
