Introductions

This is our seventh year to join other volunteers in Brazil and build a church.

When we arrive, there is usually a concrete foundation and supports for a roof. During the week, we will brick all of the walls and put on a roof. In our spare time, we will go out into the community and invite families to attend the church dedication on our last night. This is also a time we can minister, pray, and fellowship with the Brazilians. This year we will have the opportunity to conduct a VBS and share the gospel with the children.

In past years, the dedication service has always been such an awesome time. The church is usually overflowing with many having to stand outside. During that time, the Word of God will be preached and some will make decisions that have eternal consequences. It has been such a privilege to be a part of what God is doing in Brazil and to help CMU with their mission.....

"to build churches to the glory of God where the gospel will be preached, lives will be changed, and people will be saved until Jesus comes."

Mission Planning

The 5 person team met at the Marston's house for some dinner, fellowship, and planning.  Since we have some new individuals going this year, it was good to discuss all the particulars of the trip.  We have the opportunity to host a VBS over three days while constructing the church.  At our meeting, the ladies were able to finalize the details for the activities and the stories that would be shared with the children.  The other church from Georgia that will be on this trip will be providing all the supplies for the VBS.  We concluded our evening with prayer.  Thankfully, we have received our passports back and all with 10 year visas.  Please continue to check back on this blog for updates and prayer requests and praises.
