Brazilian President
“Brazilian voters pushed the election for president into a second round yesterday, after no candidate won more than 50 percent in the initial ballot. Lula’s former cabinet chief, Dilma Rousseff, will face former Sao Paulo Governor Jose Serra in a runoff later this month, electoral authorities said.”
I am no better at Brazilian politics than I am at American ones, meaning I really have no clue. But, a letter from a friend told me this:
“(October 3rd) we’re going to have elections in Brazil for presidency, senate, State governments and representatives. Please pray for our country. There have been some rumors about the leading candidate (Dilma Rousseff) and her party, PT (workers party). She’s Lula’s candidate. People have been saying that a lot of bad laws are about to be approved in case she wins; gay marriage, abortion approval, restrictions to outreach services, etc. Even Christians churches are going to have to celebrate gay marriages, otherwise the pastor/priest may be sued and the church might pay a fine, just to name some of these new laws. And to top it off, her vice president’s son is part of a satanist cult.”
Anyways, these things make a big difference to our brothers and sisters in Brazil. Please keep them in your prayers.
