Dear Friends,

We had a very good month of July. A highlight was a pleasant visit from our friends, Pastor Darrell Messer and his dear wife, Shirley, of the Emmanuel Baptist Church in Bellbrook, OH. We had several days of sweet fellowship and Brother Darrell taught our Bible study and preached our Sunday evening message. Our people genuinely enjoyed the fellowship with them and a young lady who was visiting our services said that God had touched her heart through the message that was preached. She has returned to our services since and has begun to bring her family with her. We thank God for Darrell and Shirley’s coming and the interest that Emmanuel Baptist Church demonstrates in our ministry.

The dormitory project for the Project Life teams is progressing well. We are trying to finish the bathrooms, floors and kitchen before our next Missions training seminar in a few weeks. Our Alpha and Logos teams will be heading into the interior of the São Paulo state immediately after the training seminar for three weeks of evangelistic outreach in the public schools and parks. This past month the teams witnessed to over 3000 people, of whom nearly 300 made professions of faith in Christ.

I need to apologize for not sharing a tremendous blessing with you. In some of my letters in months past, I related to you how our son, Brennen, was suffering from some chronic respiratory infections. We are very grateful to God and happy to share that he has not had this problem for quite some time. On several occasions, he has shown the initial signs of a cold or sinusitis, but his immunity system has kicked in and he has stayed free of infections. We do thank those of you who have prayed for Brennen and some who have also sent us medical information to aid in his treatment. Our entire family is rejoicing in excellent health.

In Christ’s love,

Bobby, Charlene, Jessie and Brennen Wacaser
