Metamorfose

That's right... Metamorfose!

Metamorfose is the Portuguese word for metamorphosis and that's what this mission trip is all about... Metamorphosis: a tangible change! The definition means "involving a conspicuous and relatively abrupt change." It's just like what happens to a caterpillar... it changes into a butterfly or when a tadpole changes into a frog. The change is obvious! And it can be the same for people too. They can be sinful, lost, broken and fallen men who are turned into people who have actual relationships with a Holy God. That's what we're believing is going to happen in Brazil through our mission team.

We will be in Brazil from March 31st-April 11th. We're taking a group of 21 students and leaders from Revolution and Hope and Life. We're also partnering with a group of 13 from Crossroads of Walton County ministering to the people in Curitiba, Terra Boa and Campina Grande do Sul Brazil.

Please pray for us as we minister in the schools, orphanages and slums. We will be in places we haven't been before and we're actually staying in the jungle rather than in the hotel we normally stay at. Pray for boldness, wisdom, favor and most of all- that His presence will be so strong within our group as we lift up Jesus. We are going to try and post pictures and blogs each day so keep checking back. The internet in that part of Brazil is very sporadic so please be patient if we miss a post.

Thank you to everyone who made it possible for the students and leaders to be in Brazil.

Love Ya!
Jim and MJ
