The church is growing in Vermont! God is working wonderfully through the Israels.

Hello everyone, Hope your Thanksgiving holiday was good to you! The AIM class just returned from the break which was nice. It was nearly 80 degrees over the break and then in the 20's after they got back to Lubbock! Wow, it's already December. As you know that means that team announcements are just around the corner. I think the class is super ready to find out what the teams will be. Keep them in your prayers over the next few weeks as final decisions are made and then ultimately the announcements.

Dear friends of our mission in Recife Brazil, I hope this finds all of you well as the holiday season approaches. Kathy and I are fine and looking forward to sharing some holiday traditions from the USA with some of our Brazilian brethren and colleagues starting today with Thanksgiving. Brazilians do not celebrate Thanksgiving. I hope all of you have a blessed time with your loved ones. This year we’ll have to depend on Skype to see our family. Hugs and kisses will have to wait for our next visit to the states.

Dear brethren, Greetings in the glorious Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Hope and pray you and your families are doing well in Him. The attachment is most recent AIBI’s newsletter. Thank you for everything you are doing in Jesus. Love Beni, Sonila
