We Are Staying in Brazil

As most of you already know Ivan and I have decided to stay in Brazil. 

Our Home in Brazil

  It wasn't an easy decision. It was a decision that took many mornings and nights of prayer and having our accountabilities pray with us. Ivan and I wanted to make sure we were in God's will and not our own. Although I missed family and friends I needed to make sure I wasn't putting them in front of God's will for our family.
 One night Ivan and I talked together and really shared what God was telling us. It was hard for me to admit, but I kinda knew God was telling us to stay. Ivan felt no peace about going to Hawaii and I felt the same way. I asked him however if we could just wait till God gives me the confidence that we are to stay.
 
  We serve a God that knows the desires of our heart. It was hard for me to grasp not giving birth with out my family and friends who I grew up with around me. I didn't want to just have His peace but I needed the strength and reassurance to know, so I could tell people in confidence instead of pity. I know God's plans are not to harm us and I wanted to share the joy of Lord when being apart of His plans.
  I finished our newsletter and God through writing our newsletter revealed all He had in store for us and simply asked, "Would you like to be a part of what I want to do here in Brazil?" Isn't that amazing He didn't just say, "Look how selfish your being" instead He simply asked me if I wanted to be apart of what He was going to do in Brazil. Now if most of you know me... you know I don't like missing out on what God has in store especially when He wants me to be apart of it. It was then I became excited and knew,"Yes it's going to be hard, but I wouldn't miss out on working with Christ in Brazil for anything."
 

preaching at churches

  I began to tell Ivan and some friends and family members. We both have so much joy for what God is doing here in Brazil. Yes finances are hard, Yes we still need to finalize documents but Nothing can compare to the peace Christ has given us with knowing we are in His will.

encouraging families in Brazil

Please we ask that you continue to pray for our family. Our documents are not cheap, nor is everything else we need to survive, but we always say God's will God's Bill.
I ask if you would like to be God's hands in this time we are here and help us Financially, that would be great. We would also love a team of prayer warriors as we are here fighting for God's glory. Please comment or email me and I will send you the links in how you can  support financially as well as the prayer request we have.  PacificSuga@gmail.com

Thank you again for all your love and support. Love the Freitas Family!
