Between Weeks

2 Comments |Tags: , , ,

We’re in such a hurry here, getting ready for one more Missionary Week. Last week was awesome! Pr. Rogério from São Paulo was with us for a few days and we were deeply impacted by his ministry – God made great things among us!

We had lots of young people from many churches, from Araruama, Brasília, Cabo Frio, Campos, Curitiba and Niterói, of course – it was great!

Apart from that we were able to talk to Pr. Rogério about the trip to the Ribeirinhos (the communities that live near the Tapajos River), in Pará – and everything was settled! Talking about it (fresh, fresh news) we’ve just bought the tickets! We only need to pack now! God is faithful!!

A few hours from now we’ll be going to Cidade de Sião to on more Missionary Week – and it’ll be awesome!

A couple hours from now we’ll be going to Cidade de Sião (City of Zion) to start our 1st Missionary Week of 2009! We’re just finishing organizing some stuff… it’ll be awesome!

I’m also taking the time here to post a video I made about Timor, showing a little bit more of what we did there during 1 year and 3 months we stayed. Here’s the video (sorry the captions are in Portuguese… maybe I’ll make a English version someday):

Happy 2009!

It’s amazing how fast was the year of 2008! So many things happened! And 2009 is already starting on full throttle… next week (and the one after that) we’ll have  2 Missionary Weeks at Cidade de Sião (City of Zion), my church’s ranch and we know it’ll be awesome, even though we’ll have a lot of work. Pr. Rogério and Ap. Jesher from São Paulo will be with us, bringing messagens that we know will impact us. I can’t wait!

Tonight we’re going there with some youth to pray, praise and intercede, so that everything will go according to God’s plans!

Yeah… 2009 will be an amazing year!

God bless!

Lifehouse’s Everything Skit

In one of our Missons’ Services our youth did the skit of Lifehouse’s song Everything that got famous on YouTube through this video. I wasn’t here at the time, but Bianca passed it to me and asked me to put it on YouTube. I took the time and edited it a little, putting the original song on top of it so that we could get better soung -- and got goosebumps while watching the video, which I had seen so many times already! God is awesome! Enough talking… here’s the video:

We go, they come

A few weeks ago I went to Curitiba (southern Brazil) to visit Josh and his church, Comunidade Evangélica de Curitiba. I took part in a youth service and two of their main services – it was really good! I felt at home! The people there is very friendly! =) I could get to know their Maanaim Missions School, which they have in their ranch… I got a little bit “jealous”, to have our own missions school in our chuch… and we believe it’s not far away! The little I stayed there was enough to give me lots of ideas… I thought a lot on the trip back! Apart from that, it was good to get out of Niterói and see other places – I don’t know why, but I love traveling ;)

From next week on we’ll have two Missionary Weeks together in the Cidade de Sião (City of Zion) – the first one only for youth and the second open to everyone. We already have quite a number of people enrolled from other churches in Rio and also some from other states. This is the first time we do one week right after another and with so many people from outside – and we’re sure that it’ll be a blessing! We’re really excited!

Apart from that, we had a missions service at Comunidade Shamah to talk a little bit more about the Ribeirinhos Project. Elaine talked a little about her work in Bolivia and I talked about my work in East Timor and also preached a short message. We’d planned to go to this Project in October, but we postponed it to February, but God knows everything… at His time we’ll go and it’ll be awesome!

God bless!
