Amazon Update - November 2021

This month's update is our annual fundraiser, and we are seeking your support to team up with us financially to continue with the work here in Brazil.  As missionaries with the Xingu Mission we are required to raise 100% of the support needed for both personal living and the ministry where they are involved.  Financial support received is a two sided coin.  On one side the missionary receives what is needed to live with the freedom to champion the Gospel and make and impact on the lives of the least, the lost and the marginalized.  On the other the side God is using the giver as an agent of provision and a way to make a difference in lives around the world from right where you are.  Please consider giving and bless you!!!

Elba has been teaching our leaders how to become better preachers.  The course is weekly, and each person in the class preaches in front of the other.  Then the everyone in the class evaluates the preaching with positive and sometimes not-so-positive feedback.  It takes courage to expose yourself to your peers, and we are proud of their participation.  We are also glad that we can give a safe environment so that when our weaknesses are revealed.  They can be talked about in a healthy and constructive manner.  The group has been surprised with each other, and the power of their preaching.  Lucas was the first one out of the gate to preach after the classes.  He was nervous but did a great job.  Praise the Lord!  Training leaders and planting churches. 

 


 

Thanks for your consideration to donate; please remember that you are storing up treasures in heaven as the Lord says in Matthew 6: 19-21 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." So please give and become a partner with us as we train leaders and plant churches here in the Amazon Basin.  We need your help.  Please find out how to donate below. 

Would you mind praying for spiritual, physical, emotional and financial health for us?  

Thanks and much love, Steve, Elba, Camilly, and Alyssa

We appreciate your continued prayers:

·         Please pray for our church, leadership, and congregation that we help people draw close to God as we navigate this time. 

·         The rejection of this virus from you, your family, friends, and to be thrown out of this universe forever. 

·         Please pray for Elba and I that we may hear clearly where to put our focus and energy in this next phase of our lives.  

·         Please pray for spiritual, physical, emotional and financial health for us.  

Much love, Steve, Elba, Camilly, and Alyssa
