Sounds like heaven

Our mission team moved to a town where a Brazilian church offers three church services—in Spanish, English and Portuguese.

We attended all three services and were able to hear praise to our God in three different languages. It was really cool, and know heaven will sound something like that—many different people praising our Creator in every language.

There was a guy named Nick there who talked to the pastor about being baptized. The pastor grabbed Andrew, a guy on my team, to talk to him about baptism since the pastor does not speak English very well.

We now have a new brother in Christ. He will be baptized sometime in the next month. So, please keep him in your prayers.

Also, please pray for the New England area, that God will soften the hearts of the people here and for the small but passionate and loving church here in Connecticut.
