Outreach Event In Santos

This week we did our Quality Of Life project in a municipal school in Santos. The school is EMEF Auxiliadora, which is a school for students in 1st grade through 5th grade. This was our first school working with Igreja Batista Centenario, which is located close to the school. We spoke in 9 classes on Monday morning and in 9 more on Tuesday afternoon, and Andreia & Ludmilla helped each day as our interpreters.  The students, teachers, and school leaders were very grateful for our coming to help them, and we enjoyed our time with them very much. God did an unusually powerful work in the hearts of the teachers, and many received Christ and expressed interest in the church as well. We praise God that 339 students and 15 teachers accepted Christ and committed their lives to Him, and also that the school director Antonio expressed an interest to receive more help from the church for the families of the students. God is good.
