I had the privilege of going to the new Pacajá Church on Sunday. There was a middle-aged couple, a dad and his young son, a teen-ager, plus the four Wilsons, Ferreira and Fernanda and their two beautiful girls, and myself.
I was reminded of the words that John Wimber told a Canadian pastor, when a church was just starting up in Canada, “Enjoy this stage. It will not stay small for long.” These were also my thoughts, for this church-planting team. Ferreira and Fernanda were both beaming all through the service, and Keith and Marsha exuded joy and sincerity.
After the service Marsha brought out fresh corn cake, from their own corn. The day before they had a pomonha-making (special food made from fresh corn) party at their house. Next week is a big bar-be-que, after the soccer game, which is turning out to be a great way to connect with the community.
May God continue to bless them with grace and favor.
