Pictures Tell The Story

One of the ministries in Ubaúna is a clothing ministry. Several times yearly large duffle bags of clothes are taken down and distributed. Here, ladies of the church are sorting the clothes in preparation to distribute them.

This formosa tree has become symbolic of the church's growth in Ubaúna. Located on the plot that has been purchased to build a church building, the tree was practically dead. During the last rainy season it revived and burst into a colorful canopy.
One thing that is in abundance is kids! Where there's one, simply wait a few minutes and you'll have 10; wait 15 minutes and you'll have 25. Put on a VBS and you'll have 300!
A recent baptism. Baptisms are always joyous occasions with many non-believers coming out to see what is going on. Bible studies and praise in the street is quite common due to the heat, especially in October - December Once someone starts playing, a crowd will quickly gather.
     
Yep! Even the people of Brazil celebrate with watermelon! A different kind of chirp on the shoulder! A smile is a smile in any language.
Meetings for Bible study are held wherever they can. Schools, homes, in the street -- people come to where the Word is.
Bible study over and they're all smiles.
Traffic jam in Ubaúna.
     
VBS attracts kids no matter what culture they live in. Just like in biblical times -- people hanging in the window to be able to hear the Word being taught. This is what its all about... public declaration of a new life.
