Dear Friends,

I know that you'll want to rejoice with us over the latest news from the works in Brazil. I spoke with Pastor Oseias, one of my ministry partners in Curitiba, this past week. He shared with me the news that 39 persons accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior at a recent outdoor evangelistic meeting. Paulo, from our Project Life ministry, was the main speaker. We also learned that five folks rededicated their lives to Christ at the same meeting. This meeting was sponsored by a new church that was planted just south of the Parana state line in the neighboring state of Santa Catarina. The church there is growing very well under the leadership of a young dedicated team. The Project Life team will be working in and around Curitiba during the months of April and May, helping the local churches better evangelize their communities. They will also be letting some new volunteers work with them to acquire more experience in reaching folks for Christ.

I have been quite busy with studies during the last month or so. I have a deadline to submit several theological papers in a couple of weeks and I am pressed for time to get all the work done. The studies themselves are rewarding, but the deadlines are putting a little stress on me. And you ladies know how husbands are when they are stressed. Charlene and the kids are being patient with me, but they would like to see me a little more than they are at present.

We did have the marvelous opportunity to get a relaxing visit in with the pastor and members of Bible Baptist Church of Harrisburg, Illinois. We thank Bro. Art Donley, and the church for their hospitality to us during our visit. We are always happy to meet personally those folks who faithfully pray and support us. We would be glad to hear from others who would be interested in meeting my family and me, personally. You may contact us at the address and phone number above. We are looking forward to seeing many of you at the Spring Missionary Conference in Lexington, Kentucky, later this month. Continue to remember us in your prayers.

In Christ's love,

Bobby, Charlene, Jessie and Brennen Wacaser
