Brazilian Alliance Church Reaches Out to Community

August 6, 2008

Nearly 115 people attended an evangelistic service at the Petropolis Alliance Church in Porto Alegre, Brazil. “Normally, [our congregation] averages 65,” said C&MA missionary Sanford Hashimoto. The event featured puppets, games, and a gospel message, followed by a soup dinner.  
 
Earlier this summer, the church relocated from a hotel to a rented storefront. “Now we are able to meet in the new location daily instead of only once a week on Sunday,” said Hashimoto. “Everyone is excited, and our church is growing in numbers. Pray for us as we preach, teach, and share the good news of Jesus Christ.”

Pray.

The Alliance believes wholeheartedly in the power and necessity of prayer. We cannot “Live the Call Together” unless prayer is central to all we do—as a denomination, as churches, and as individuals.

Give.

You can help build Christ’s Church around the world by donating online to the Great Commission Fund. This fund finances our missionaries, allowing them to focus on ministry rather than raising their own support.

Serve.
