"We are the Impact"

A video from our last days in Brazil...just goofin' off, having fun with our interpreters! We were singing any song you could think of, from Christmas music to Disney tunes!

Brazilian Church Service

This was the very first Brazilian church we went to. They sang a lot of songs in Portuguese that we knew in English too. Here is a video of them singing "Come, Now is the Time to Worship" in Portuguese...

Singing at Train Station Video

This was part of our ministry in Porto Alegre. We would hand out tracts and invitations to the evangelism night that weekend, as well as performing wordless skits and singing worship songs. We had many opportunities to have conversations with those passing by, and a few of us were able to share out testimonies too.
