Did you hear a sigh of relief?

That was me after handing in all of my grades last night to officially end my semester at the Baptist seminary! With 90 students and four courses there was a lot of grading to get done, but by God's grace "it is finished." It was encouraging to see the effort the students put in with their busy work, ministry, and study schedules. Pray that their time of study will not just result in academic achievement, but that it would especially lead to spiritual transformation and effective ministry for the Lord.
On another subject we are enjoying a few weeks of having the niece of a mission colleague stay with us. She is doing an internship at our mission publishing house. When she leaves at the beginning of July, our daughter Sarah will be arriving for a five week visit, also doing an internship at the publishing house. We appreciate your prayers for her safe travel and a good time of learning and growth when she comes.
your missionary in Brazil,
Steve
