We took a trip to the North [Portugal] to visit our dear friends Abílio and Julieta in their country side place. The beautiful scenery of the Rio Douro and the vineyards are a feast to the eyes. We also learned a lot about Portuguese history on several excursions . The weather has been fantastic and above all we are in good health. It has been wonderful to spend time with family again and we thank the Lord that our relatives are enjoying the blessing of good health as well.

Along with personal visits we were able to meet new people who are interested in the Audio
Bible distribution – Abílio kept 10 to share with his friends. Armando took 12 to bring with him to Mozambique.

Jorge and Jason accomplished some handyman work regarding insulation of the attic. There were a lot of steps to climb, but with great eagerness they managed to get all the materials upstairs . It is looking good, but this is a work in progress so will have to be continued at some further point in time.

Ben finished his one month intensive language class in Braga. He met with a team of international students and is now conversing much more fluently in the Portuguese language.

Gloria and Jason put in quite a few hours editing Audio files. It is an operation that not even Google itself can accomplish and it is thanks to their knowledge of the Chinese language that they can get the job done. So much to do and so few to do it. Always praying for laborers. The harvest truly is plentiful but the laborers are few. Mt 9:37.
