During a special Children’s Day service at an Alliance church plant in Brazil, several children raised their hands to accept Jesus as Savior. The outreach featured a puppet show, children’s songs, and a story about Amy Carmichael, the late missionary to India who opened an orphanage.
“Our church is a church plant so we don’t have lots of people yet,” said C&MA missionary Diane Renick. “We usually have about 10 children each Sunday, and for this event 23 children came. Several came from the neighborhood where we had handed out 350 invitations.” One mother who came with her son said she loved the service and would return next week.
