MISSIONARIES TO RS, BRAZIL   March 2009

Dear Co-Laborers in Christ,

In six weeks we will be heading for the states for a much needed furlough. We hate to leave the work here but it has been four years since we have seen our family and friends and we have one daughter (Sarah) in Bible college and will be dropping off another one (Lori) in August. We also are looking forward to reporting to our supporting churches on what God has done here in Southern Brazil. A lot has been done but much more needs to be done. I have tried to contact all of our supporting churches either by phone or by e-mail, if I did not get in contact with you yet and you would like for us to come by and report please e-mail me. We will only be doing a six month furlough and my calendar is pretty much filled but I still have some openings and I would love to come by and report on our work and see you again.

The church here is growing, we just baptized five people and a new family of six that just moved from another city has joined our church. Our living room is getting too small to hold everyone; we are averaging over 20 people per Sunday service. Soon we will have to rent a building. Praise the lord! In January Missionary Brother Jerry Lantz & his wife Atalia came down from São Paulo to help us with Vacation Bible school, we used a local school gym and averaged about 50 children per day; eight made professions of faith in Christ. We just held our first mission conference with Pastor Valcides missionary to the Indians of the Amazon and Veteran Missionary Joe Hawkins. (Please pray for Brother Joe as he fell and broke his collar bone while visiting his daughter.) Our church voted to take on Brother Valcides as our very first missionary at 200 reais per month which is equal to about $80.00. Amen! A missions minded church is a growing church. We are still doing house to house soul-winning and park evangelism on Saturdays. The new family is a blessing and helping with the ministry here, we plan to mount a speaker on his car and go down the streets advertising our church and preaching the gospel.

Lori will be graduating from school and we are planning a nice graduation party for her and have invited about 50 people to attend. We are so proud of her, she wants to serve the Lord and attend Bible college with her sister.

Please pray for our church while we are in the states. Brother Ivanio and Bro. Anderson deacons in our church will be running the church while we are gone. They will both be taking turns preaching and teaching the Bible. I will also ask some Pastors and missionaries to come and preach sometimes. God is blessing the work here and I am already looking forward to getting back in December. The future is as bright as the promises of God! Thank you for your faithful support and prayers!

Dear fellow laborers, friends and loved ones,
     These last three months have been a blur.  I spent one month in the USA visiting family and helping Sarah get settled into college.  When I arrived in Brazil we had to move to another house.  That has taken about a month of our time looking for a house, moving, fixing up the house we were in and the one we were moving into.  Moving is such a pain.  I keep thinking of that verse: Rev. 2: 20“He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.”  It would not hurt my feelings at all if he came today.  “This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through”  
     We had to move the meetings of our church to our new house.  Praise the Lord, He gave us a house with another large living room to hold preaching services and Bible study.  We still live in the same suburb so that makes it easy for members who do not have cars.  We try not to make a habit of picking people up for church as that creates a dependence that is hard to break later on when the American Missionary turns the church over to a Brazilian pastor.  We will pick up children and older folk when it is raining and take them home after dark.  
     Our numbers had dwindled when I went to the states but now they are climbing again.  We had 10 for the teens meeting last Saturday and 12 for Kings Kids Bible club.  Now that everyone knows where we are at I believe the numbers will continue to grow.   Ivanio and Carine are really coming along good in the Bible Institute.  They plan on becoming missionaries one day and hopefully will be able to watch the work here while we go on furlough.  We watched over two other ministries for the first two and half years that we were here, so we had a late start with starting a local church here in Caxias do Sul.  I am confident however that God will bless the ministry here and that many will be saved.  We are meeting  Wednesday nights specifically praying that God will do something special here in this city of 500,000 of which for the most part are idolaters and spiritists.  There are ten of us who meet every Wednesday. We need the boldness and power of God to witness and preach to these people who have been blinded for centuries.  Please pray with us brethren!  
Prayer Requests:  * Saturday Soul-Winning Outreach   *  Nursing Home ministries   * English Bible Class  * Bible Institute  * Sunday Preaching Services  * Wednesday Prayer Meetings *Tract Distribution  * Sarah in Bible College  * Our Health  * Ivanio & Carine  * Salvation for our new neighbors & Rosangella, Sydnei, Odilone, Henrique, Rodrigo, Alexander, Fabiana, George
  * Spiritual growth of church  * The Street Ministry that we are planning on starting (We have ordered thousands of Gospel tracts and will make some scripture signs, there is a large park in the middle of town where we can go and witness)   If you can help with the tract ministry please send us some Portuguese Gospel tracts or money to buy some.  We need thousands and thousands!
Our address is:  David Cato Caixa Postal 1206  95001-970  Caxias do Sul, RS  Brazil, S.A.
     I would also like to thank you for your faithful support financially and prayer wise.  I believe that we have the most faithful supporting churches of any missionary.  I mean that!   God Bless you for your faith and help with the ministry here in Southern Brazil.  Looking forward to seeing you during furlough in 2009.

Dear Friends,

Thank you for your prayers and support, isn't God good!

News: We have turned over the work in Cidade Nova to John and Neila Yelle who have just recently returned from furlough. Keep them in your prayers! Sarah, Lori and Amber have really come a long way in learning Portuguese. Sarah is looking forward to Bible College, Lori took some art classes and Amber loves to play with the dogs. All three are taking piano lessons. They grow up so fast! They are already 17, 15 and 10 years old. Since our last letter, a church in Nova Petropolis about twenty miles from here has asked us to help them during a transition period. The church has been without a pastor for one year. They have several men who want to study the Bible. We hope to start a Bible Institute with these young men. My goal is to train the Brazilians in soul-winning and to be Christian leaders. This church will also help us some with the ministry here in Caxias do Sul. (Caxias do Sul has about 500,000 people and very little gospel preaching churches!) We are working with the Germans in Nova Petropolis and the Italians in Caxias do Sul. There are even a few Brazilians mixed in here and there. We need soldiers in our ministries!
Praise: *We were able to lead a young lady and some children
to the Lord recently in Bairro Serrano. *My foot and leg are doing better! I can now do door to door visitation and soul-winning! (I could not walk for two months after I broke my ankle!) *We had nine teens at our first teen meeting in Nova Petropolis. Two made profesions of faith. * We had over 50 in attendance last Sunday morning. Six people came forward during the invitation professing Christ as Saviour! Amen!!! It was friends day and we brought six people from Diane’s English class; three of these accepted Christ as Saviour!

Prayer Requests: *Please remember to pray for the work in Bairro Serrano! We had 21 children last time we held Bible club there; however no adults have shown any fruit of salvation yet. *The church and work in Novo Petropolis. *Pray for Darvan, a man who has been called to preach but got involved with a girl. We hope to be performing a wedding for them soon. He is currently under church discipline. *Pray for Claudio, another young man called to preach and seeking the Lords will as to where God would have him go. *Pray for Diane’s English class, she currently has about 30 students. It is our goal to win them to Christ.

* Please pray that the three who accepted Christ will grow in the Lord and that we will be able to start a church with them here in Caxias do Sul. * Pray God will give us workers!

Because of Calvary,

David, Diane, Sarah, Lori & Amber

Update on the Cato's in Southern Brazil June 29, 2006 Dear Friends, Just wanted to update you on our ministry here and share some prayer requests and blessings with you. News and Praises: * I managed to break my ankle bone about three weeks ago. I was running in the rain and tried to jump over a mud hole and slipped and landed on my twisted ankle. Please pray that it heals quickly, the hospital put a splint on it and it seems to still be pretty swollen and blue with bruises. I try to stay off of it but I think I hop around way too much on my crutches. There are so many things to do and I feel so far behind. Also traveling by car here on these bumpy roads aggravates my leg worse. Anyone who has ever had a broken leg knows what I am talking about. * We have found a house to rent anticipating the return of John and Neila. We are beginning to look for furniture and major appliances. We are going to all the used furniture stores, etc. We have already found some good deals. * Two new families are attending church now in Cidade Nova and two people accepted Christ as Saviour last Sunday. (I almost did not go to church and preach that night because I had fallen on my broken leg. You just can never tell how God is going to work) Prayer Requests: * Please pray for the church in Cidade Nova and us as we give the responsibilities of the church back to the Yelle family. (They started the church about seven years ago.) It will be a big void in our life as we have given of ourselves for that ministry for over a year. * The new work in Bairro Serrano. That work has been put on hold for a few weeks because of my broken leg. We have two families doing Bible studies there so far and some have accepted Christ as Saviour. Diane has made some visits to these families since I became an invalid. * Please pray for our finances! Besides all the furniture and appliances we have to buy, Diane has to order over $1,500.00 worth of Homeschool books and DVDs this month for the upcoming school year. * Pray for spiritual victory here in Caxias do Sul ! (Pop. 500,000) Our goal is to start Fundamental Baptist Churches(plural). We know that only God can do that, so please pray that we stay fired up, in His will and filled with the Holy Spirit! Thank you for your prayers and support! By His Grace, David Cato and Family Missionaries to Southern Brazil

THE CATO FAMILY March 2006
MISSIONARIES TO RIO GRANDE DO SUL, BRAZIL
Praises:

Our soul-winning outreach is growing! Right now we have two families, one lady and five teenagers that go out at least once a week. We are currently using two methods. 1. Door to door passing out invitations and gospel tracts. We witness when they permit us to do so, very few Catholics will let a stranger just show up at the door and talk to them, but we try! 2. We visit friends of our members and contacts that we have previously made. At their table usually sipping chimarrao we will then present the gospel to them from an open Bible. (Very effective) Please pray for our soul-winning outreaches! We have seen several people come to the Lord this way. We also have big days at the church where members invite others to come and hear the gospel.
The faithful support of our churches! 1 Cor. 3:9a “For we are labourers together with God:..”

Prayer Requests:
Our discipleship program. The liberal churches and the cults are after our baby Christians. Sometimes they steal them before we can get them strong with the milk of the Word. A shame that many will go after other Christians instead of going after the lost.
Pray for the salvation of Clovis and Letiça, the husband and daughter of Ivonne, a faithful Christian lady in the church.
Pray that God will lead us to the right area to start another church. We are currently considering starting a church in another suburb in the Northern part of Caxias do Sul. A veteran Brazilian Pastor has also asked us to help in his area near Porto Alegre. We only have six more months here until John and Neila Yelle return to take over their work.
Our Bible Institute. We now have four students.

* The other night while coming home from teaching at the Bible Institute, I saw several strange lights in the woods. The next day I went to investigate and found two dead chickens, one dead goat, and a dead rabbit that had all its` feet cut off. Next to them were candles and a bowl of blood. Macumba! Sometimes at night we hear the eerie sound of their drums. They dance to the music of the drums until a spirit enters their body. Spiritism is very popular here. They offer up these sacrifices to bless or curse someone. What a shame! I heard of one poor woman who bought three shiny apples to donate to the demons while her children went hungry. She was asking the demons to bless her and give more food! It is estimated that 1/3 of the people living here participate in such sacrifices which is called macumba.
* Everybody is healthy and the girls are growing too fast! We love it here!

NOVEMBER 2005

Praises:
* Seven people have accepted Christ as Saviour since our last prayer letter. One man, Carlos, 11 years ago was the only survivor of a train wreck. He was blown 50 feet through a window and landed in the top of a tree. He told me that now he has been saved twice.
* We have started a Bible Institute with material from our brethren in Bahia and Manaus. We have one very dedicated couple who are attending so far and another young man will begin in January.
* A member of the church just called and asked me if I could go with him to visit some lost family members! Also another lady, “Ivonne” has gotten on fire for the Lord. Diane and she has led a sister and brother-in-law to the Lord! I am just about to have a fit! Excuse me while I just jump and shout a little bit!
* We have officially applied for our permanent visas! The Federal Police said they see no problems and that we should have our visas within six months. Praise God!

Prayer Requests:
* Our soul-winning outreach. Right now we have two families and one lady that go out at least once a week.
* The new converts. Most of them are doing Bible studies and we will baptize them soon in the river.
*Pray that God will lead us to the right area to start another church.
* The need: (What I saw recently on an interior trip) Lajeado and region 150,000, One S.B. church which works mainly with German people. Santa Maria 300,000, with one Fundamental Baptist church and a few S.B. churches. Cruz Alta 70,000, no gospel preaching church. Passo Fundo 200,000, with three small S.B. churches. Carozinho 30,000, no gospel preaching church. Lagoa Vermelha 30,000, no gospel preaching church. Vacaria 60,000, one conservative Southern Baptist church. Caxias do Sul 500,000, one Fundamental Baptist (the one we are working in), two liberal S.B. churches and several Reformed (Pentacostal) ”Baptist” churches.

News:
* Our house was robbed and cleaned out last month . Almost every thing of value was stolen. We lost about $5000,00 worth of merchandise including two computers, watches, video camera, digital camera and many other items. I sent an email to 126 of our friends and churches. They prayed for us and many of them responded with love offerings. We were able to replace many of the items that were stolen. I stand in awe of the great God that we serve and our faithful supporters who came to our aid in time of need. I am typing this letter on my brand new computer! Thanks to all of you who helped!
* We have since put in an alarm system and steel bars on the windows and doors.
* We got a new puppy (Hopefully one day he will be a big strong guard dog)
* Lori has braces now.
* We found a piano teacher for the girls.

Special Points of interst:
Gauchos drink Chimarrão a very strong green tea.
Most Catholics in RS also practice Candomble and Alan Kardec which are forms of spiritism.
Caxias do Sul is 2,369 feet above sea level.
It is colder here than Alabama!
Rio Grande do Sul is made up mostly of immigrants from Italy, Germany and other parts of Europe

JULY 2005

Dear friends,
Greetings from Rio Grande do Sul, Southern Brazil. Sorry it took so long to send out a formal prayer letter! I sent out one via e-mail about a month ago but do not have everyone’s e-mail address. Please send your e-mail address to me at m2brazil@yahoo.com if you did not receive our prayer letter via e-mail.
We are very excited about being here. I am chomping at the bit to start a church in a new area; however, we have promised John Yelle, (another missionary who is on furlough) to watch the church he started and also their house and belongings for one year. We do need some time to relearn the language, the local slang and culture. The people here are known as Gauchos, (a Brazilian cowboy mixed with Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and maybe some Indian and even German). They are a hard working, Independent, proud people. They are mostly of the Catholic religion and fiercely traditional. So, our work is cut out for us but we know that God can break the most stubborn heart. Please pray for us as we get adjusted here.

News: ***The church here is going great! We have visitation and soul-winning every Saturday at 2pm.
***We were able to buy a vehicle, (Hyundai Galloper) a seven passenger SUV which runs on natural gas which is about 1/3 the price of gasoline.
***I cut the tip of my finger off cutting wood; they sewed it back on at the hospital and it is doing fine. Thank God it was not worse!
***We have internet, so please feel free to e-mail us, send pictures and we can also send pictures to you.
***The American dollar has continued to fall in value. We have had a lot of expenses also lately which is normal when you first move to a new country. We thank every one of you who gave extra towards our travel fund, as this helped us tremendously and has kept us out of the red.
***Praise the Lord! We are officially at 99% support. (There are still others who have promised support yet!) Wow! We did it! God first of all; you who have given by faith and of course our efforts of going and telling our story. Thanks!

Prayer: ***The congregation here, pray that they grow in the Lord and that they stay in church
***Our witnessing, that their hearts will be receptive to the gospel
***Our health
***That we will learn the language and culture better
***The Bible Institute (We have two students now and will gain a third soon)
***Pray for Everton, a man who just made a profession of faith last Sunday

Missionaries to Brazil March 2005

Dear Friends,
Ain't God Good! I know that is not proper English but it sure says what I am thinking right now. We are nearing the end of our deputation journey with sadness, fear and gladness. Sad that we will be leaving family, friends and our native land for many years. Fear of the unknown, places we have never been and situations we have never experienced. Glad that we will soon be with the people of whom God has called us to work with; the people whom Jesus died for. I am so glad and happy that God is using me and my family! I know that He has a great work for us to do in Brazil! I can understand how the apostle Paul felt when he said; "And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry" 1 Tim 1:12 We have seen souls saved, people rededicate their lives for Christ and some called into full time ministry. However, our heart aches to be about the King's business in Brazil. Please pray that we will always be soul winners filled with the Holy Spirit!
We just came from cold, snowy West Virginia. Thanks, Bro. Jesse, and the good folks of Rock Cave Ind. Baptist for giving us a nice warm house to stay in! We have picked up several more churches for support. Just recently two churches in West Virginia, one church in Kentucky and five churches in Florida have promised financial support. That puts us at about 90% of our needed support level. We have just six more weeks of meetings to raise our final support. Our target date to be in Brazil is June 9, 2005. We are working hard and praying that the necessary funds will come in. I believe they will. Some churches have indicated that they may support us at a later date.
Prayer needs: * Please pray for our Visa situation! We may be able to re-instate our permanent visa once we arrive in Brazil. We will be applying for a one year religious visa so we can ship many of our things. Brother John Hawkins and the CBMB (World Baptist Mission of Brazil) is helping us with this Process.
* Our Travel Fund Thanks, Southpoint Baptist for the .00 that was sent for this need! Besides our plane fare and shipping costs, our largest expense will be for a vehicle. We are praying that we will have the available funds to buy a good used dependable car.
In the next few months, would you please consider helping us with this expense? Any amount will be helpful and appreciated.

In Christ's Service,

Dear Friends,

Praise the Lord from whom ALL blessings flow! We are currently at 80% of our needed monthly support level! This would not be possible with out YOU! Your prayers and financial support have made this possible. Thank You!

**News: We have really enjoyed the fellowship and opportunities to preach but are anxious and chomping at the bit to be about the work in Brazil.

We just bought the Rosetta Stone's Portuguese Course levels 1 & 2 on Ebay. The girls are learning fast and Diane and I are brushing up on our grammar. It is the best course I have ever seen! We have just received our passports and will be applying for our visas soon. We hope to get a permanent visa right away because of our two oldest daughters having been born in Brazil. The visa is called a "Family Reunion Visa". We will be traveling to Miami, Florida in early January to speak with the Brazilian Consulate about our visas. We have 14 meetings in Florida; then will be heading for KY, OH, WV, PA & NY for meetings in March & April. We have about 35 meetings planned but need to schedule 10 more.

**Prayer Needs: Travel Fund ,000 1. Visas $1,800 2. Plane tickets ,000 - ,800 3. Shipping costs $1,500 4. Dependable Used car ,000 - ,000 5. Home School books & videos ,500, The sell of our house and motorhome, God's power in our lives and for lost souls in Brazil. We need 10-15 more supporting churches to be at 100% of our needed support level.

2Cor 10:16 "To preach the gospel in the [regions] beyond you, [and] not to boast in another man's line of things made ready to our hand."

God...."

September 2004

Dear Friends,

*Thank you very much for your prayers and support! We are currently at 70% of our needed support level. We are excited and thankful for what God is doing in our lives. We are planning to leave for Brazil by May or June of 2005. Please pray that our support level will be at 100% by then. I have 37 meetings scheduled until then but need more in Florida for January and February.

*My survey trip to Brazil was a blessing. I had the privilege of visiting John & Neila Yelle's work in Rio Grande do Sul and also Lanny & Judy Wood's work in Sao Paulo, Brazil. They are both doing a great job and it was good to be able to speak in Portuguese again. We have prayed about it and believe God would have us to work with John & Neila in Rio Grande do Sul. They have asked us to watch their work for them when they go on furlough next year. The city they are working in has over 400,000 people and has very little gospel witness. The predominate religions there are Catholicism and Spiritism.

*I have barely had time to breathe since I got back from Brazil a month ago. Just in August we have traveled over 2,300 miles visiting churches in Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Ohio; preaching, teaching, singing,(our girls do the singing) and showing slides. We participated in two camps, one for missionaries and the other a children's camp in Ohio. (Six children made professions of faith at the camp in Ohio, Praise the Lord!) I also had to do some extensive brake work on our motor home. Thank God my father-in-law helped me on that one! We are just happy to be busy serving the Lord and am content knowing that we are in the center of His Will! God Bless you until we meet again!

June 2004

Dear Praying Friends,

*It seems just like the other day since I sat at my computer and wrote our last prayer letter. Time goes so fast. I am reminded of the scriptures in Romans & James: Romans 13:11,12 "... for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand:" Also in James 4:14 "Whereas ye know not what [shall be] on the morrow. For what [is] your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away." These verses remind me that what we are going to do for Christ we must do soon and with urgency! I found out that a man whom I had witnessed to in December of last year died just recently in a fishing accident. He was a good man but lost and did not know Christ as his Saviour. He did not know that this would be his last year on earth. It makes me think of the people who will die without Christ this year; especially those in Brazil who have never heard a clear presentation of the gospel.*

*July the 14th I will leave for a survey trip to visit John and Neila Yelle in Rio Grande do Sul and also Lanny and Judy Wood in Sao Paulo Brazil. Please pray for safety on this trip and that God will give us a greater burden than ever for the Brazilian people.

Updates:

**We are currently at about 63% of our support and it is steadily increasing.

** Since our last prayer letter we have seen 12 people accept Christ as Saviour and 34 surrender their lives to the will of God.

**We have been in 168 churches since January 2003

**We are still having fun and are just beginning to catch our second wind! We can not stop until we

accomplish that which He has called us to do.

Dear Praying Friends,

We are over half way now; it seems just like yesterday that we hit the road on full time deputation. We have been on the road now for sixteen months. Our heart is in Brazil but we must raise the funds needed in order to keep us there when we get there. Please continue to pray that God would move people's hearts to support us on a full time basis.

Blessings & Answered Prayer: * Almost every service these last months we have had people make *** decisions for Christ, either dedications or rededications. Two small girls were saved just recently. Now * that is exciting!

** Praise The Lord! We are now at 53% of our support (We are past midway, each percentage is a step closer to Brazil!)

** A preacher gave us a very nice Computer. Thanks Bro. White!

** No major accidents or sicknesses

** New Support. Amen! We have had at least fourteen churches take us on for financial support since December of last year and some have increased their support.

Prayer needs: * That we would be filled with the Holy Spirit of God constantly!

** Meetings to present our ministry. If you know of someone I could call for a meeting * please drop me a line via e-mail. I have used up many of our contacts and need a fresh supply.

* * That our motorhome would hold up.

* Money for home school books.

News: * Amber and Lori have lost more of their teeth. Amber's nickname is now snaggle tooth.

** Sarah turned the big age of 15 on March 2nd. (They grow up too fast)

** Sarah added more songs that she could sing in church

** Diane is still homeschooling, cooking, doing laundry, correspondence, paperwork, and just being * my wonderful wife & mother to our girls.
