Where am I going.

This is my first post to my new blog about my upcoming mission trip to Porto Alegre, Brazil. I will be leaving Orlando, Fl on Oct. 10, 2008 and returning on Oct. 17. We have a team of five people going on the trip and we will be working with an IMB missionary, Jeff Dunson, while we are in Porto Alegre. The purpose of our mission trip is personal evangelism. Each of the team members will be sharing their Faith in Jesus Christ through an interpreter to individuals and families in communities where new churches are being formed.

This will be my third mission trip since I have been attending First Baptist Church in Oviedo (FBCO). The first trip was a construction mission trip to Israel to work with Bill and Phyllis Becton. My second trip was to Doaktown, NB Canada. This trip was also a construction trip to work with David and Lisa Storey.

I am excited to be asked to go on this trip since it will be my first opportunity to go on a pure evangelistic trip.

There will be 5 people on our team: Chuck Reilly, Art LaBrack, Kathy Millard, Debbie Laster, and me. Except for Chuck, I believe that this will be the first time that we have been to Brazil to do this kind of evangelistic work.
