Welcome Retreat


Last weekend we had a retreat with the 10 americans students and 2 americans staffs that came to Brazil to join our community. We want to come closer to God together and share our faith lovingly to all man.

Mt 9:35-38 and Col 1:28-29 are our themes for these 8 weeks that we will be together in Brazil.
Pray that God will give us a loving faith!
Pray that we will give ourselves to serve all man!
Pray that God will use us to show His love and grace in Jesus for all man!

Many students are laboring side by side to change these Kids reallity.

WE rented a big house and they had a great day playing and swiming. They also watched the movie Chronics of Narnia, CS lewis movie.

IT was so great for all of them to have a chance to see in a movie the great picture of the GOSPEL.

HI every one!!!

I am really busy these days. I just move to my new apartment so that I can prepare for me and Cristina "our" future house. These has being really important but also really hard. I am expecting to receive a group of 12 Americans from Indiana here in my city (Belo Horizonte) and for that I am working hard to help them to be with all their needs supplied. But because of my moving, i am without my internet and also my old furniture (my old family furniture) and everything else I was supposed to have. Yeah, but I am enjoying the idea that this transitioning time will go fast so that Cristina can join me and we can settle our house soon.

Please pray to this time of transition!
Please pray also for the group that is arriving on Thursday and will be with our community for the next 8 weeks.
