Let’s Start Talking

A group from Canada arrived a few weeks ago to start our first North American campaign here for LST – a program which teaches conversation English using the gospel of Luke. The Canadian team consists of 6 teachers who study one-on-one with Brazilians signed up for the class. They are teaching an average now of 60 sessions per week (some are students who come twice a week) and there are still new students signing up for the classes every day. There has been so much interest in a beginner class (since many who have come were not yet advanced enough in their language) that one of the teachers began one on Sunday and had over 30 students! This is a great opportunity for the community to become familiar with us and to teach the Good News to many who tipically would not volunteer to listen. Please be in prayer for this work. There are still more spaces open for students, so pray that those are filled soon and that God will touch the hearts of those who are coming!

I love the idea of LST but have never done it yet.

My uncle does it in Japan. Good to hear you have so much interest!
