We invite you to share in our adventures as we learn a new culture, a new language, and a new way of looking at the world around us. Dare to dream with us God's dream for Salvador, Brazil.

Youth Service Project
The youth had a service project this weekend to deliver food to families our church knows who are in need of our help. Each family received a large bag of food and a great big chocolate Easter Egg (as is the tradition here). We were able to help 7 families who are either friends or family of members at our church. One family was very emotional since their father who was just in his mid thirties passed away this week last year. The Mom (an aunt of one of our young professionals, Danielle) has found no steady job and is trying to raise three children now by herself. The other families we visited are also low income families who are either single parent families or are trying to care for at least one family member with a handicap or in many cases both. Our youth learned a lot this past Saturday and we appreciate our supporters who make days like this possible.
