Light To The Nations-Who We Are

Light To The Nations Church

In March of 2000 we initiated a local church in Rio de Janeiro. This truly is our passion. Renee, my wife, and I pastor that church and we now have a full leadership base. In fact, if I were to leave the church it is perfectly able to move ahead by itself (please don't tell anyone). We are a vibrant church located right next to a major mall and on the main thoroughfare in Rio.

Our vision in the church is to be a church which raises leaders that plant churches. We are active in reaching our city in all areas including mercy. We have strong active cells and ministries which range from benevolence, feeding the poor, drug addiction recovery, cooking, English classes for the community, etc.

Brazil is in a time of harvest. In farming communities the time to sow is done by the family, however, when harvest time comes uncles, aunts, cousins, brothers and sisters are called in to assist in bringing in the harvest and securing it in the barns before the rains come. This analogy is true for Brazil. We believe that by conquering the cities we will have human and financial resources to reach the rest of Brazil as well as the unreached nations of the world. Peter Wagner predicted in 1998 that Brazil would be the top missionary sending nation by 2010. Help us hold and harness this harvest!
