We start here ...


Hello everybody.

May the Grace, Peace and infinite Mercy of the Lord Jesus be with you, wherever you are.



We hope, through this blog, to share with you a little of what we have lived these days and, this way, shorten the distance that separates us geographically.

Portugal has been our home. A beautiful country with great history and a people who teach us, in many ways, the cultural differences that we are learning. We are out of our Brazil since May 2008. 1 year and 4 months. It doesn't seems so long, at the same time it seems an eternity. After spending 1 year and 2 months in Braga in the north, we are now in the region of Lisbon, near Sintra and Cascais.

We have been blessed by the Lord through the churches that have welcomed and loved us. This happened in the Evangelical Baptist Church of Central Braga, where we let beloved brethren that profoundly marked us with their tenderness and care, and is no different here at the Evangelical Baptist Church of Lisbon, where we were received with great respect and love.

The simple truth is: As servants of the Lord Jesus, called to show His love for all the Nations, despite all the differences, difficulties and struggles, He has taken care of us.

As a sailing boat, we have been expecting, day by day, for the "wind" that leads us in His purpose and will.

As I said ... is only the beginning.
See you soon.

PS . Sorry about the grammar mistakes ... help me with the corrections. Thanks.
