Update: Brazil!

I am a Mosquito Magnet.  But I'd go back in a heartbeat after a week of meeting with and teaching some of the most passionate believers I've met in awhile.  What a tremendous beginning and foundation they have in Fortaleza.  I was blessed to be ask to accompany Beverly Kline of Youth With A Mission in Tyler to Brazil this past week. 

 

Once there, along with one of her other staffers, we taught the in's and out's of maternity ministry.  There are approximately one million abortions a year in the country of Brazil alone.  There are vicious slumbs that host prostitutes as young as 11, 12 and 13.  The women who we taught are adamant that God has called them to work with these young girls in offering hope, help and a way out of their cycle of destruction.



Needless to say, it was a week of intense, yet very blessed, fellowship.  Our staff here at BOL will continue to pray for and cover these who work so tirelessly in the middle of the hopelessness that surrounds them.


A very special thank you to all who covered Jeannine in prayer as she traveled and taught this past week.  It was an honor to invest in God's Kingdom in such a powerful way!
