As I was saying

Brazil was a good trip. We flew in to Sao Paulo from JFK and then took a short flight to the third largest city in Brazil, Belo Horizonte (in English it translates to Beautiful Horizon). Mostly, we ministered in this city but a few times we took trips out to smaller towns. Since the national language is Portuguese, we needed to use translators often. We worked closely with some YWAMers that we have a good relationship with.

The trip was a busy two weeks with one day off in the middle. Much of what we did was simply minister to the Lord and to people. We were intentional about being in the streets a lot but one Sunday we did a church service as well. One of our favorite places to go was the red light district of the city. It's a blessing to take the light of who Jesus is to the dark places of this world, and to see people change and desire good things from the Lord.
