Nova América FWB Church Organizes

The Nova América FWB Church in Campinas officially organized on Sunday, January 9th. Paulo César, pictured above, is the pastor. For 7 years this group has been a mission church sponsored by the S. José FWB Church. The organization means that they have incorporated, being registered with the government, and are now an autonomous FWB church. Fifty-five people were accepted as charter members.

The church has located land in the neighborhood which they hope to close on in the next few days. This will allow them to initiate construction of their church building. They have been saving up for this for several years, along with the contribution of a few churches in Indiana that gave toward the purchase of this property.

Another exciting development is that one of their members, Kely, has finished her missionary training and wants to work with the Kurdish people in Turkey or Iraq. Our FWB churches in Brazil are now facing the challenge to raise the necessary support to send her.

Please pray for this new church as they imediately face two huge challenges: build a church building and raise the necessary support to send out a missionary.
