Muritiba


Matt and Mary Virginia, along with Travis, went with Christians from 7 congregations around Salvador to Muritiba, a town in the interior of Bahia, on Saturday, August 13. We left the city about 7:45 and arrived in Muritiba around 9:45 where we met up with our good friend Nilton and the other missionaries living there. They dropped us all off at various locations in the village to hand out invitations to join free Bible classes they will be holding this month. Iracema and Carlos were our partners (seen in the pictures above) for handing out the flyers. The Muritiba church had already received many calls from interested people by lunch time, and we still had two more hours of inviting after that. They served us all lunch at 1:00 and a short afternoon snack after our work was done. We arrived home late that evening and slept well. To see more pictures of the day click here.
