Our Past Work In Brazil

 We arrived In Brazil on June 27, 2005.  For over a year we lived in Itapua, RO.  We attended the Bible Baptist Church of The Valley, started by Missionary Tom Brewer.  After teaching and helping with the Sunday School bus route in Itapuã for 1 year, we moved to the Capital of Rondonia.  In the city of Porto Velho, God allowed us to find a very good language teacher and also many doors of service opened up.  We went to the Liberty Bible Baptist Church.  When we started attending there was only our family and Bro. Telmar,  who is in training to be the pastor,and his family.  We praise the Lord that after lots of visitation, prayer, and Bible preaching, when we moved the church had more families that were members and is now a self-sustaining work.

Our Present Work

We are in the city of Ji-Paraná to start a Fundamental, Independent Baptist Church.  When we first started this work in the driveway of our home on a Sunday night, we had 11 people present.   Now by the grace of God he has allowed The Igreja Batista Biblíca to meet in a rented storefront in a very good location in town after many moves and changes the church bought it's own property in 2015 and started a building project in 2016 which now is our current location.  The Lord has opened the opportunity to start training folks in our Bible Institute. 8 brethren have started studing the Work in our institue and we pray that God would give us men who would be able to take over the works that we start. We praise the Lord for the souls that He has allowed us to win and the people baptized in the past years here in the needy city of Ji-Paraná.
