I love my church and the college ministry that God has allowed me to lead, but at the end of 2006, I sensed that God was stirring my heart and pushing me to look beyond college ministry towards church planting.

I found myself praying to God and simply asking Him to open and shut doors. Within three weeks, I was sitting down with a missionary who invited us to join his church planting team in South Brazil. When I originally asked God to open and shut doors, I did not anticipate that the door He would open would be Brazil! But since then, He has begun to open our eyes to the great potential and impact the Church in Brazil can have on the world.

Our desire is to help develop a growing church planting movement in South Brazil, then to send out Brazilian church planters and missionaries to other parts of the world. We believe that the Brazilians, due to social, cultural, and political realities, are uniquely gifted to reach areas and countries in the world where Americans may find great difficulty and resistance. Our vision is to be sent to Brazil in order to send Brazilians.
