Gently and Boldly Proclaiming Christ at Carnival!
Yesterday we spent 5 hours in worship, prayer and preparation to hit the streets in downtown Rio during Carnival with the church from Caju. A group of 120 of us then took buses downtown to use every opportunity to share the love of Christ.

I'm amazed that people spend money just to come to Brazil during Carnival! Brazil has so much natural beauty that God has created and wonderful places to see. Carnival is not one of these. It was extremely noisy, crowded and the smells were horrific! The thought came to my mind that this would be what hell is like.
Many times as we shared with individuals of the hope that they could have as followers of Jesus Christ, they were moved to tears. It was beautiful to see the presence of the Church in the midst of the darkness! Caju Church shone for Christ!
Battling together,
Diane
