Snapshots of Missionary Life: From Maranhão to Bahia

ByAndrew

We’ve covered a lot of ground since our last snapshots post. Here are some pictures, which, as always, you can see in “real time” by following us on Instagram.

Welcoming Ivone, one of the missionaries supported by Ebenezer, to our Sunday School.
Lunch with Ivone at one of our favorite spots.
The Ebenezer family that Sunday.
I’ll be posting more about this later, but this vehicle is part of an ambitious project called “Evangelistic Kombi” that is being inaugurated by one of our pastors in São Luís.

Some of the young people practicing sharing the Gospel with their friends.
Itacyara had a couple opportunities to share with the ladies.
During the retreat I got to study with this panorama in front of me.
The attendees of the retreat.
We got to meet this outstanding couple who work at a Christian orphanage in the city of Barreiras.
