The end of my Trip in Brazil

Towards the end of the trip in Brazil we did what we called "Kindness day." We went to the poorest part of the town of Curitiba and provided food, clothes, games, and encouragement for the people living in the neighborhoods. I served in the prayer and encouragement section. We had teams who went door to door through the neighboorhood to invite people. While we took care of their physical needs, some heard the gospel for the first time and came to know Jesus as their savior. We put on a skit for the Children and many became Christians as well. It was exciting to watch God move and to see how greatful people were for the food and clothing. It was also very heart breaking. Most of the kids we're dirty and dressed in clothes that were either way too big, or too small. However, we did what we could for them and this was one of the most amazing days of my trip.

The night before we left we had a "Night to Remember", where we invited all the pastors from the Churches and all 120 of us came together for a meal of fellowship, thanksgiving, and remembrance for what God did while we were there. I was so sad to go home but I know I will never forget what God did in Brazil and there is much more to come!
