Interesting Students!

As you know, I'm an English teacher, I have about 25 students, most of them come to my home to learn English. I get to know many interesting people as my job is to talk to them in English and make them speak as much as they can to practice their English. Above you can see Antonio and Lísia Machado, they are a very nice couple, he is a law student and she is a civil servant. Antônio was born in Portugal but grew up in Brasil. We have many good conversations about life in English. In this picture we are playing scrable with Matt!

This is Loreta Freitas, she is a Biology professor at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul. She needs English because she is working in a project with the Unicersity of Bern in Switzerland. As we were talking in English about our lives, I found out that she belonged to the church of Christ when she was a child, her belated father, Joffre Freitas used to work at the American Consulate in Porto Alegre and befriended with Allen Dutton, she used to play with Allen Jr. and the Signoretts brothers that come to our house church. She said that she wants to bring her mother to our house church on a Sunday in the sake of the old times. She also said that she still remembers her Sunday classes with Maria Dutton when she was 3 or 4 years old!

I am glad that God has been using my work as an instrument to bring people back!

Please, pray for my students!

God Bless you!
