F.O.C.U.S. Brazil 2019 Part 5: Cleaning and Game Night at Ebenezer

ByAndrew

This is a continuation of our report on the visit of a missions team from Fellowship Baptist Church in Lakeland Florida. Read parts one, two, three and four.

After enjoying the dunes and the Preguiça River, it was back to work for the F.O.C.U.S. team. On Thursday morning they cleaned out a room at our church that was being used for storage, in preparation for our Sunday School opening. Then, that evening, they spearheaded a game night at our church that brought in several new young people.

Getting ready to clean out the spare room.
Time for some late-night dodge ball.
Turns out Monopoly is the international language.
Song time!
Pastor Daniel brings the Word.
The group that came to game night.

Still playing “catch up” with long overdue posts. Here are a few pics from the New Years event the Ebenezer congregation held at the farm of one of our members. The ladies, gathering at the kitchen.
