parsonages, as well as, participating in radio ministry; also serves
on the Board of the Cariri Valley Theological Seminary.
Vicki: correspondence, specific projects and support ministries,

Personal goals for 2010

Tim: continue learning how "...the truth shall make you free",
John 8:32, and seeing that truth permeate his preaching
and teaching; continuing to develop friendship with men in our
community; and working with a committee responsible for the
redistribution of BMMB´s (Baptist Mid-Missions do Brasil) equity.
The first semester of the year, Tim’s Bible studies with the Vila
adults have been focused on The Forgiven Forgiving their
Debtors. Most of the messages are taken from Paul’s letters
focused on desiring to vs. having to obey God.

Vicki: continue to maintain our website, prepare newsletters for  
mailing, make healthy lifestyle choices and keep up with exercise
program; read 1-2 Christian “self-help” books, 1-2 management
books, and 1-2 books for entertainment; encourage believers

better understanding of her strengths to use them; completion of
presentation given at the BMMB March 2010 Family Conference
about our missionaries who have gone on to Glory, putting it on
DVD and beginning Portuguese translation.

Special Projects for 2010

The acquisition of funds for construction of an auditorium
for our new church, which is the sister congregation of
the Church for the Deaf. Presently, we meet in a small
covered area next to the new property of the church.
We have $13,000 of the $32,000 needed for the first phase.

Additional information

One of the major challenges we face on the field is
administering a de-valued U.S. Dollar.
