Recently the AFLC celebrated forty years of ministry in Brazil. In the northern hemisphere, the North Star gives faithful guidance to disoriented sojourners. The Southern Cross constellation serves the same purpose in the southern hemisphere. It’s a joy to realize that in Brazil the Association has been pointing people to the Cross of Christ for forty years. This direction has been given so that they will arrive at their eternal destination safely.
Over those forty years many lives have been changed. One of them was a young boy whose father was convicted of murder. He lived about three blocks from one of our churches. One day when he heard music, he went into the church and the pastor shared Jesus with him. It wasn’t very long until he and his mother became Christians.
Today this young boy is a man with a wife and family of his own. He is a lay leader in his church and attends our seminary part time. He’s being trained to share the Savior who was shared with him.
