Ministry Update: Fishing With Men

ByAndrew

Last week I reported on the beginnings of a new men’s ministry at the Ebenezer church. On Saturday, they had their first official outing – a day of fishing in nearby Raposa. For an inaugural event, it was a smashing success. Close to twenty guys came out – including some from outside the church family.

Look for more pictures this Friday in our “snapshots of missionary life” feature.

At the beginning of this month we traveled to the state of Minas Gerais for the annual conference of our Baptist Mid Missions missionaries serving in Brazil.

The Ebenezer youth group got together on the beach last Friday for a final bash for 2019. As we look through these pictures we are thrilled with how these teens have grown, both in numbers and in their walk with God. We are also thankful for Pastor Francivaldo, who brought a reflection from the Word…
