Another bitterly cold day as we ventured out in 6 inches of snow to catch the tram to the Metanoie Church. We were filled with incredible Praise and a wonderful Word and it was good to meet up with Marius and some of his team from the San Nicolau Mic Centre. We were so pleased that a young mother and her 3 daughters who need support joined us again this week and we are praying that they will make this church their spiritual home. We explained that their Christmas food parcel and shoebox gifts was God's provision.
We returned home and thawed out to a superb meal prepared by our wonderful hosts, the Luca family. Then it was a quick visit to the 6th floor of our apartment block with another food parcel and Christmas boxes to a lovely family of 10 who worship at the local Pentecostal Church. After driving in treacherous conditions Pastor Jackie arrived to collect us for the Christmas program at Vinga Church.The Nativity Play incorporated into the Service was a production to behold as we celebrated the birth of our Lord and Saviour. All the excited children left with pocketfuls of sweets and mandarins. For us it was time to say goodbye to our Church friends until the spring. We have been blessed in being part of their lives for 3 weeks. Pastor Jackie encountered a few problems trying to get the truck out of the village in the heavy snow but God was with us and we made it. Sunday is my night for being in floppy mode but I give thanks for a blessed sabboth.
