On the first weekend of July 2016, the brethren in the city of Presidente Prudente in the interior of São Paulo, Brazil held a three-day conference on the theme of God's Love. Brother Eli Tenorio—the GC Secretary—was present and delivered the messages "In the Arms of the Father", "The Ultimate Giver", and "Returning Home" beginning on Friday and ending on Sunday evening. The church was filled with brethren and visitors from the local region, as well as from other parts of the country. On Sabbath afternoon, a young people's meeting was held with the enthusiastic presentation of several praise items.
On Sunday morning, the brethren gathered together on the banks of a lake for the baptism of four souls. There, Brother Tenorio had the opportunity to baptize his son, Victor, as well as rebaptize his brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and Sister Alfredina.
May God bless our new brethren, as well as the church and the work in the Presidente Prudente church.
