Vacation Bible School in Recreio

 

Dear Friend,

The cold winter break in Brazil is the whole month of  July, reaching maybe low 50 and high 80 degrees.  The wonderful weather is enjoyed every day here. 

 

We took one week of this winter break to do a vacation Bible school in Recreio.  To our wonderful amazement, we have found children that have NOT heard about Jesus!   Our team had hiked out to the very far end of Recreio to invite new children to the LightHouse for VBS.  We found children that are in great physical and emotional need.  The most amazing thing is that these kids were hearing the story of Jesus dying for them for the first time!

The whole week we had these 70 new kids to witness to and had a very good response.  We will even be taking in a few of them and placing them into the LightHouse to care for.  It was very refreshing for our team to have new faces to evangelize.  And an honor to tell them about Jesus for the first time.

Dear Friend, 

We praise God that in the slums of Brazil exists a hiding place for the youth here.  Having a place that preserves their innocents, teaches purity, and defends those who are abused and neglected.  We have seen our children at the LightHouse being protected from the wild whirlwinds of the wages of sin. 

 

This month the kids dressed up like country folks for their birthday party celebration.  Going fishing and playing pin-the-donkey, and all sorts of fun games.  It is a blessing to see our kids in a haven such as the LightHouse in the peaceful presents of God, learning and growing.

Like a Lighthouse, let us be a beacon to this city… 

The Recreio community has been very cruel recently. Within a 2 weeks time about 20 young people have been murdered here.  All within the ages of 14 to 20.  Several of them have been family of the kids in the LightHouse.  Every death has been related to the using or dealing of drugs.  Some have been killed for an unpaid drug debt as low as $2.00!

 

The day we had a meeting with our LH team agreeing to start weekly outreach meeting for the youth, was the same hour that we got news that one of our former LightHouse kids; Charlie, who’s 20 now, got shot in they eye.  By the grace of God he is still alive yet lost his eye.  Weeks before he was at our meeting and got ministered to.  These young adults know God and love him, but don’t have the courage to step into a church. 

 

Lord, like a lighthouse let us be a beacon to this city. May our arms be opened wide to all who come inside. This place of love and mercy for the lost.

May all who enter see the Holy Spirit meet their needs as the power of revival falls.

Amen!

 

 

 

Thank You

We want to say thank you once again for your prayers for this ministry.  For we can surely see the Lord’s hand at work here.  Blessings to you and your family!
