Sagle Victory Baptist Church

Dear Praying Friends,

We have had an eventful weekend! Last Friday was the start of a two-day music conference in the city of Sorocaba (a little over an hour from here). We took three vehicles to carry a total of 18 people from our church. Basic workshops were offered, for some of which Wendy and our daughter, Lydia, were able to interpret. The team from the States did an excellent job of teaching practical musical knowledge to people with little to no previous study in this area.
On the second day of the conference our number had increased to 24! More great workshops were offered and again Lydia was able to help. Lastly, all the participants sang as a choir in the sacred concert. The conference was an encouragement to our church to praise the LORD in song!

Sunday evening we were privileged to have the mini orchestra from the church who hosted the music conference, here in Jundiai for the service, along with the team from the States. (see attached pictures of this and the conference)

Rosenildo, the man who accepted Christ a week ago, was at church Sunday, excited about what he is learning!

Please continue to pray for new Bible studies to be started, and salvation decisions to be made in existing studies.

Thank you for your prayers–we serve a mighty God!

Terry and Wendy Broyles and family

Thanks to you who are “where the action is”!

Tonight is our study with Adinilson and Roseli. They told Edson(the man who introduced our families) that they are really enjoying studying the Bible.

Jonatas continue studying on Saturdays…Pray that the Word will penetrate his heart.

Terry’s second study with Rosenildo this past Sunday, ended with Rosenildo making a profession of faith! He does have a church background but had apparently never quite understood the Gospel. Terry will continue to disciple him.

Praise the Lord! Joao Victor’s mother(Rita), aunt(Maria), and two cousins listened intently during the first study on Sunday and responded well. Then Joao Victor’s two cousins (Priscila and Eric) came with him for the Sunday evening service. (Priscila has already made a salvation decision…she is so happy.)

The other two studies with Clayton and Tatiane (on Thursday) and Dn. Nici (on Wed.) are going well. These all seem to know the Lord but Dn. Nici’s husband, who refuses to study, decided to fix a faucet right next to the room where the study is held. Please pray for the Holy Spirit’s working in his life as he hears the Word of God.

Several men from the church are beginning to visit with Terry; Celso, Sergio, Sr. Alberto, Sr. Lopes, Pr. Douglas, Adriano, and next Sunday afternoon two of the young men(Jonatas and Thiago) from the youth group will be going with Terry to visit in the neighborhood of Fazenda Grande!

Please pray for health and for wisdom. May the Lord grant you a blessed week!

Please read this WONDERFUL update and rejoice with us over God’s blessed response to your prayers!

We have had an exciting week and Sunday!  Tues. we had our first study with ADENILSO and ROSELI.  It is very rewarding to share God’s word with this couple that admitted to never having studied it. Thursday we had the second study with CLAYTON and TATIANE.  They have been involved in a church but Terry would like to spend some time teaching them to make sure they understand salvation is by grace and not by works.

Saturday morning Terry did canvassing with one of the men of the church, Sergio, and lined up a meeting to start that evening at 5:00 with 21 yr. old JONATAS.  He did come to our home and said he will be back next Sat.  Saturday afternoon Terry went out again to the same area with one of our deacons, Adriano.  There was one couple (the wife is a teacher from the school where the soccer team ministered) that wants a return visit in a month from now as they will be traveling during vacation season.  In all we have three evangelistic Bible Studies confirmed and 7 pending!! PLEASE PRAY!

Sunday was a great day! Terry,Sergio,and Celso, one of the deacons, visited again in the afternoon and two people agreed to have a study. Before the evening service Terry led PRICILA to the Lord…she is visiting with her cousin, JOAO VICTOR, whom he led to the Lord recently!  After the service Terry dealt with an older couple who wanted to talk about salvation with someone and they made a profession of faith! Another member, Divino, along with Vagner, led a young man, HENRIQUE, to the Lord.  Yes, we were very excited!  PLEASE PRAY THAT WE WILL BE ORGANIZED AND HAVE PEOPLE TRAINED TO DISCIPLE THESE NEW BELIEVERS!

MAY GOD BE GLORIFIED—HE IS WONDERFUL!
Terry, Wendy, and Family

Dear Praying Friends,

We are praising the Lord for His great mercy in answering prayers regarding the ministry of the soccer team from the States. 
1.) Our son, Benjamin, had the opportunity to translate for the team in various classes and other situations.
2.  The gospel was shared with over 1000 students and teachers during the team’s three-day ministry!  Most of these people were reached several times with the gospel through:
~Testimonies
~Tracts
~Gospel presentation
3.)  Pr. Douglas and Terry returned to the schools and clubs where the team had played, and presented the Directors with a soccer ball for each school.  They were well received and it afforded us an opportunity to make our church better known in the area.
4.)  Our church was also greatly affected.  Many of the members have had their interest in soul-winning renewed.  Several have spoken with Terry about their desire to go canvassing/evangelizing with him.  Please pray that Terry will use this moving of the Holy Spirit to teach and train others in this area.
Thank you again for praying for this ministry.
To God be the Glory,
Terry, Wendy and Family

P.S. Attached are some pictures of the team ministering.
