What was that?

This week I began again doing some orientation for a new career missionary lady from Germany.
Some of the time we are joined by a young German lady who is visiting here for six months.
Portuguese is our language of communication, but often the one who has done the language course has to ask - "What was that?" or "What does that mean?" We also have to have her translate into German sometimes for the younger lady.

So, I have been sharing about our mission, structure, history and varied ministries. They seem eager to learn, which makes my ministry a pleasure! I am helping them to learn about:

church planting in Castanhal, an hour from Belem,

the ministry of MEIB,(here is a Kayapo Indian village),

the training course for Indian men in Sao Felix do Xingu,

Bron teaching in a Guajajara village,
and the Basic Bible course classroom at the Bible Centre in Abaetetuba.

Bridge over river on the way to Abaetetuba by the road

River boats at the port in Abaetetuba

And what was that? Do you know?






Next week my sister plans to arrive for a visit, and she will be included in our visits!
