As Bethany wrote, we had a FANTASTIC time in Toledo! Everyone in the church was so welcoming and friendly. They really made us feel at home, and we were able to have a great experience with their ministry. Their congregation is so mission minded and really cares about reaching people! Hope you enjoy the pictures:)
Our friend Fabio welcomed the Brazilians and Americans with a specially made sign on his door! Fabio graduated from seminary and worked with the Miriam Infant Home. It was especially exciting for Karla and Edival to see him since they all went to Bible school together. Now he's involved in children's ministry, outreach, church work and he just wrote a book (which I will attempt to read in Portuguese... :P)! Please keep him in your prayers!
This is the first children's program we put on. I'd never thought of dressing up so crazy for a program like this but the children LOVED it. They all wanted to meet us and talk to us because we were acting as our characters. It made it so much more exciting for them. One more idea I want to bring back home to the States!
Bia [Fernanda], Tata [me], Tutu [Thomaz] and Paty [Bethany] showing off our shnazzy outfits!
These are the people we worked with the most in the church. Lots of good memories were made and we're all hoping for another chance to visit Toledo!
