Our Mission:

I was reached by the Lord in April 2010. Since then, God has been working in my heart a desire for missions, specifically among Muslim peoples. I took several courses to better serve within Islamic culture and to learn the best ways to reach this people group.

We also served in pastoral ministry and church planting for several years, and we lived in another country for nine months to improve our English. Upon returning, we were sent to the mission field.

Our mission is to serve the Lord with excellence, so that the name of Jesus Christ may be recognized as Lord and worshiped among Muslim peoples, and to plant a church that glorifies the name of the Lord wherever we are.

​

We are teaching Portuguese to Muslims who arrive in Brazil without knowing our language, with the goal of evangelizing them.
I am serving with MEAB (Brazilian Arab Evangelical Mission), providing training in churches about the Islamic world and equipping workers who desire to serve among Muslims in Brazil and around the world.
Church Planting – we are praying and working toward planting a church in our community through evangelism and discipleship.

​

We are sharing Jesus with everyone God has placed in our path — Brazilians, Arabs, and other foreigners — as we live in the tri-border region of Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina, where we’ve had contact with people from many parts of the world and different languages.
We also serve in our local church by evangelizing children from the church and the community, ages 3 to 12.
