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.

This is one of the most important pictures I have posted in recent weeks from the Ebenezer congregation. Let me explain: Last Sunday was Brazilian Fathers’ Day, and, as we have every year, the Ebenezer congregation honored the fathers that gathered there. That, however, is not the important thing about this picture. There are several…
The Ebenezer Regular Baptist Church was happy to have Pastor Brian King and his wife, Judy, as our special speakers for the 2017 conference. With the theme “The Reformation Continues”, Pastor King brought messages that applied Reformation principles to the everyday lives of believers. We were also blessed by several special musical numbers, and a…
