Diego and Jackellayne

When one dedicates his or her life to Christ, the ultimate goal is to reach heaven, but God many times blesses us in rich ways this side of death, sometimes with a good Christian partner to share this life on earth. We praise God for Diego dos Anjos and Jackellayne, whom God has blessed with each other. They got married Saturday in a beautiful ceremony with the sunset in the background over the Jacaré beach. It was fun, creative, and delicious, and they were so happy.

And we are happy for them, because Diego has loved Jesus since he was a little fellow. He went through AIM, served as a missionary in Mexico, he now helps train our AME students, while finishing a doctor’s degree.

Jackellayne is also mission-minded. She was in the AME program’s first class in 2013, and served a year helping the church in Feira de Santana, BA. By themselves, each has been an asset to the Kingdom, together, the light of Christ will shine even stronger.

There were some differences of understanding on some passages, but we worked our way through them. In the end, everyone was saying how the meeting was edifying. It started around 9:30 am. We broke for lunch at 1 pm. We started back around 2:30 and went until 6 pm. They wanted to keep going, but the SEARA class started at 7 pm. If every meeting could be as encouraging as this one, we would be in heaven. My goal with these meetings is to teach the church workers throughout the state how to listen to someone who has a different belief about God's Word, try to understand their logic, their thought processes and share their own understanding from the Bible. My hope is that God's Word is heard above their personal wants, desires, or traditions. This is no

Sharing Jesus in Mexico

by Renato Menezes Renato is the second young person from João Pessoa to go through the Adventures in Missions program. His 18 months is Mexico is about to end, and undoubtedly he has grown tremendously in his faith during these past two years. Here is his report on his personal Bible studies: Praise God I started studying the Bible with one more person since last month, raising the number of weekly Bible studies to four. Ema is one of the main people that work at the orphanage where we have a ministry (the children from there call her mother). She would visit the church before, but stopped because of work and other things, but in the last months, she not only started coming again, but brought her daughter too. Some Sundays ago I offered a Bible study, and she accepted happily (I was happy too). So then Ramiro and I began to meet weekly with her to study the book of John. We talked about the importance of baptism and about whether her baptism was Bib
