  • April-June 2015 Dear Praying Friends, This has been an exciting time in the ministry here and were thrilled to tell you about the birth of Igreja Batista em Vila Cardoso (Vila Cardoso Baptist Church) in a storefront on the main street of our neighborhood of Vila Cardoso. We are holding a Childrens Sunday School in the AM and the main Family Service in the PM, as is common here. We were blessed to have a total of thirty-five Brazilian neighbors and friends who came on our first Sunday! As expected with a young church plant like this, the weekly attendance has fluctuated quite a bit, but we are continually blessed with new visitors as well as returning guests! I have been teaching through Genesis in the childrens Sunday School, and our co-worker, Bro. Lockhart, has been preaching through the gospel of John in the main services. We are so excited to have this new avenue to spread the gospel here and we ask for your continued prayers that God would work in hearts and that many would be saved and follow Christ! In May, our family drove to the U.S. Embassy in the capital of Brazil over 500 miles away to renew our childrens passports. Although we have driven all over the United States, this was our first big road trip in Brazil and I was somewhat apprehensive about the dangerous roads. But, the Lord blessed and we had a safe, enjoyable, and successful trip! We even had time to shop at a Wal-mart and eat at some American restaurants in the big city! Then, in June, my (Omars) amish grandfather passed away of Alzheimers disease. In recent years my amish relatives have greatly relaxed their shunning and even requested my presence at the funeral! I didnt think there would be any way I could go, but at the last minute we found a round-trip ticket for less than half the normal! I was very glad that I was able to be there for the funeral and see all forty-seven living cousins on that side of the family, many of whom Id never met before. Their friendly reception of us was unprecedented really unbelievable! We continue to pray for their salvation! I also used my five-days in the states to buy supplies and to visit with my siblings, including my sister whom I hadnt seen in five years, since shes a missionary in Canada! It was a very blessed time, but I was also very happy to get back home to my family and the work here in Brazil! Again, we thank you for your continued prayers and support for us and the ongoing ministry here! It is exciting to see what the Lord is doing here and we are thankful for the part you share in it! In Christ, Omar Schrock and Family Rondonpolis, Brazil
