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.

Francivaldo is a young man from the Ebenezer congregation. His calling to ministry was easy to spot when we arrived in São Luís, and God confirmed it by providing for his tuition in a miraculous way. On Saturday he graduated, and we are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to work shoulder-to-shoulder with him in Maranhão. As…
Alternate titles for this post included “A Tent-ative Solution” and “For All In Tents and Purposes”. In case you haven’t figured it out yet, the Ebenezer church has begun meeting under a large tent. The main reason for this is (you guessed it!) Covid-19. We have been meeting outside in compliance with recommendations for the…
