An Incredible Week of Ministry in Brazil

by Sunshine Gatlin

Thank you, friends and family, for your prayers and support. We had an incredible week of ministry in Brazil, with First Baptist Santa Cruz serving as our primary ministry partner.

During our time there, we had opportunities to minister in churches, small groups meeting in homes, drug rehabilitation centers, young men's and young women's groups, and through door-to-door evangelism. The Holy Spirit moved powerfully through every avenue of ministry. We witnessed lives being transformed, people receiving healing, many coming to faith in Christ, and others finding freedom from spiritual oppression.

My biggest takeaway is that the people of Brazil are hungry for God. They are passionate about Jesus and eager to experience more of the Holy Spirit's power at work in their lives.

The people of Brazil also showed us incredible kindness and hospitality. They were constantly asking if we were hungry and making sure we had plenty to eat! At times, it felt like we were eating steak and cake every few hours. We were also blessed with wonderful translators who were fluent in English, making it easy to have meaningful conversations and build genuine relationships.

Thank you again for praying, giving, and partnering with us. We are grateful for all God did and look forward to seeing how He continues to work in Brazil.
