Tomorrow starts English Camp and it looks like it will be the biggest one that we have had so far. The fab four have passed out 3,000 invites and this morning invited about 200 more students to come (of which about 100 said they were coming). We also have two buses from other cities that we know are coming to English Camp so conservatively we are expecting 200 people minimum, and possibly a higher end of 4-5 hundred. That's a lot of people! The format is we get together in a large group and sing a song or two in English and Portuguese to practice. Play a large group game or do something in large groups to get everyone involved and then share the Gospel or testimony and start learning English. In English classes we will learn English, talk about America, and then have a Bible lesson where we will talk about Jesus and have conversation. This whole process we will do this roughly 3 times a day Saturday with game time and hang out in between and once on Sunday morning. It would be great if everyone would be praying for great conversations and that we would adjust well to the number of people who come to camp as we do not know how many to expect. We are also asking for prayer that people would feel involved and wisdom to handle unexpected things. Finally be praying that this is a great opportunity for the church members to get their name out there and that they can reach people's hearts more than the Americans as this is their home. Thanks for all you prayers. We love you all.
