Embracing God’s Calling
We are thrilled to announce that we are embarking on a new chapter in our lives as we answer God’s call to serve Him in the beautiful country of Brazil. After years of prayer and preparation, we are excited to begin our journey of spreading love and faith in this vibrant nation.
Stephen’s experience as a music and youth pastor has equipped him with the skills and passion to connect with young people and inspire them through music and mentorship. Jenifer, as a third-generation missionary, has a deep understanding of the challenges and joys of serving in a foreign land. Together, we believe that our unique backgrounds and shared mission will make a difference in the lives of the people we encounter.
Starting Our Adventure in São Paulo
Our first step in this exciting endeavor is to attend language school in São Paulo. This bustling metropolis is not only Brazil’s largest city but also a cultural hub that offers countless opportunities for us to immerse ourselves in the rich and diverse Brazilian culture.
Language is a powerful tool in building connections and understanding between people, and we are eager to learn Portuguese, the official language of Brazil. By mastering the local language, we hope to foster deeper relationships with the communities we serve and truly understand their needs and aspirations.
Exploring the Wonders of Brazil
As we settle into our new lives in Brazil, we cannot wait to explore the breathtaking beauty this country has to offer. From the iconic landmarks of Rio de Janeiro, such as the Christ the Redeemer statue and Copacabana Beach, to the Amazon rainforest teeming with diverse wildlife, Brazil is a treasure trove of natural wonders.
Moreover, Brazil’s vibrant culture, with its lively music, dance, and cuisine, is something we are eager to experience firsthand. From the pulsating rhythms of samba to the mouthwatering flavors of feijoada, we are excited to immerse ourselves in the colorful tapestry of Brazilian traditions.
