Today we traveled into the mountains and visited the Holy Trinity Institute. This school began when the Pastor of the church began accepting orphand children from the communuty. After many years it grew into a large ministry of a boarding school.
At Ascension, Paula Fawcett´s, Sunday school class sponsors a student from this school and we got to met him. I have many more pictures of children for you to see and perhaps you also would consider sponoring a child for $35 dollars a month.
These children have a great chance of making in the world because of the ministry of Holy Trinity. They can receive support through their college years. Of all the kids we have the privilege of working with they have the most opportunity to make it out of poverty and take the message of Jesus to others in Brazil. 11 pastors have come from this school.
Sadly, we had a train wreck on the way up the mountains. Kathy saved the day and threw herself in front of the train and saved us all. (No people were hurt in the making of this picture).
Today will be my last update. The group will give a presentation of their experience several times so that you might also catch the passion and mission that the Lord Jesus has placed in our hearts. You, the people of Ascension, are helping to make a real difference in the lives of children in Brazil. The name of Jesus is being heard and honored because of your prayers and gifts. All glory to God alone!
