The Brazil Team is preparing to leave for Maringa, Brazil this Thursday, July 26. We will be spending time with the orphans at Lar Betania while in Brazil showing them the love of Jesus Christ, continuing to build relationships with the children that we already know there, and developing new relationships with the children that arrived at Lar Betania since our last trip in May 2011. Our team verse is James 1:27, ” Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”
Please keep our team in your prayers while we are gone. Things you can pray for include:
- Health of our team members this week as we prepare and while we are gone
- Team unity
- Safe travels and that we would make all of our connecting flights
- The ability to see others as Jesus sees them
- Our team would be the hands and feet of Jesus to all we come in contact with
- New opportunities to show the love of Jesus not only at Lar Betania but in the city of Maringa
Will be praying for your team as you minister to these precious children at Lar Betania’s orphanage. God bless each of you for your dedication in serving God through being His hands and feet to these kids and the others you will encounter.
Blessings to all,
Ava Garmon
