EFBC Missions
God willing, June 25-July 4, 19 volunteers from our church, including a youth drama team, will be participating in an evangelism/human needs mission to Vitoria da Conquista, a city of 300,000 people in the Brazilian state of Bahia. Our team hopes to put new shoes on 300 children and new reading glasses on many more people. Every person we touch will hear the good news about Jesus. We are confident that many of these will be drawn to Him.
You can have a real involvement in our outreach to Brazil by:
- Contributing to Laces & Lenses
- Attending the World Missions Seminar
Laces & Lenses
Whether you actually go as a member of our team or not, “Laces & Lenses” is your avenue to participation. For $20.00 you can buy a new pair of shoes and socks for a child, and you can put new reading glasses on three people.
Reaching our goal of $6,000 by April 1, 2010
Something to consider: Our goal is to receive $6,000 for “Laces & Lenses” by April 1. By prioritizing your spending and giving $20 each week between now and our deadline, yours can be a multiplying ministry of love.
“Jesus loves you” will be inscribed in Portuguese on each pair of shoes that we put on a child’s feet. How many times will you say that to a Brazilian child through your giving? (Donations should be payable to Edmond’s First Baptist Church and designated for “Laces.”)
