It’s been a busy but rewarding week since our last Snapshots post. Here are some highlights. As always, be sure to follow our Instagram account to get these updates as they happen.
We attended a seminar on how to minister to people with autism. Dr. Adriadna (center) did an outstanding job. We were especially pleased that these two ladies from Ebenezer accompanied us.The seminar wasn’t all sitting and taking notes…One of our young people, Isaque, turned fifteen this week. We can excuse his questionable choice of a soccer team, because God is truly working in his life.Another great moment as we shared an evening (and pizza) with Alisson and Yngrid, newlyweds from Ebenezer.…and yes, those are indeed French fries on that pizza on the left.I was reminded of how privileged modern missionaries are, as we were able to talk to my Dad on his birthday. The pioneer missionaries in whose footsteps we follow knew of no such luxury.While the truck was being repaired on Thursday I put some serious preparation time into this week’s Old Testament Survey lesson.

One of the greatest blessings was seeing Pastor Geandro, newly-called pastor of the First Baptist Church. As you…
One of my favorite parts of hosting missions trips is watching them interact with our Brazilian brothers and sisters in our local church. The Fellowship group fit right in and participated in two Sunday services, side by side with our church folks. ____________________ Did you enjoy this post?

The folks at Ebenézer just sent me some more pictures of the progress. Here we see the finished stucco on the outside, before painting, and the concrete covers being added to the septic system.

Back when I was first pastor of the Ebenezer church it was our custom to have some sort of church picnic/retreat every year. This year we decided to renew that tradition, and for the first time our retreat was held at Mount Zion Camp. We had thirty-six people in attendance, including several non-believing friends and…
