Bible verses/Versículos da Bíblia





About 150 kids come to church every Sunday. Some are there even before we get there. They are always excited to be in church. One of the things that's been making them very excited are the Bibles that some are getting. If they memorize and quote five verses they get a cool Bible. This past Sunday I had one of kids that received a Bible come to the front and say all five verses. I picked him out of the crowd and he did not miss a word. Several of them have received theirs.
São mais ou menos umas 150 crianças que participam aos domingos na igreja. Muitas até chegam lá bem antes de nós. Elas estão sempre empolgadas de estarem na igreja. E uma das coisas que tem deixado as crianças super animadas ultimamente são as bíblias que algumas estão recebendo. Quando uma criança memoriza cinco versículos, ela ganha uma Bíblia super legal. No domingo passado eu pedi a uns dos meninos, que recebeu Bíblia ,para vir até a frente e dizer os cinco versículos. Eu escolhi ele do meio da multidão e ele não errou nem uma palavra. Muitas crianças já receberam a sua.

That is awesome. Ya'll are really doing an amazing work down there, and with my recent experience in Peru I know firsthand the joy that the children have by having people love on them.

That is so great! I miss the kids, and YA'LL, like crazy. But I have to be honest - just the sight of that red generator in the background makes my back hurt!!
