Prayer Request
We need more homes for those wishing to work with PV, so that they can relocate to Curitiba. In fact, our deepest wish is for a bigger place where we could have both lodging and parking, since the one we have is already too small for us. (more requests to come)

Logo's Report
During the month of July, Logos worked with a group called Jaspe, a theater and dance group from the city of Campos dos Goitacazes RJ, around the cities of Passo Fundo, Concórdia, Seara, Dionísio Cerqueira, Chapecó and Blumenau. Except for Passo Fundo (where we had school assemblies) and Concordia, all other events were of social work and impact.
During the social work in Passo Fundo, a 17-year-old girl had her hair cut by us. There she told us she has never been to a hairdresser. She was led to counseling where she heard the message of Love of the gospel.

Alpha July Experience
The Alpha team worked for two weeks in Joinville, SC, during the month of July, together with a group of volunteers from TRANS 2010 (National Missions), young people who dedicated their vacation time to missionary work. This month was very rainy, which made our activities difficult. People there also are not as open to the Gospel, but we know they thirst for the Word of God. The Lord moved powerfully during those days, reaching several people and exalting the name of God.
"Yet when I preach the gospel, I cannot boast, for I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!"

A message from Jackson
Hi, guys. This is Jackson, Projeto Vida’s missionary. Thanks to God, my transplant went well. It was all new to me since I had never had a surgery before… ever.
But since the beginning I could see God moving: in all the exams I took, everything was working fine, things were falling into place, and then the surgery was scheduled. I was very anxious and worried about how it would be, but God calmed my heart down. I had the transplant done and everything went alright. I can see much better now, not 100% because my problem was advanced, I was almost blind. But I feel God has healed me.
I only had the surgery in my right eye. Now I have to recover well, with lots of rest and using eye drops always. I have been living by faith and in the care of God. Now I will have a transplant in my left eye, so I would appreciate your continued prayer. I thank you in advance for all of them.
I know that when I enter the O.R. you, my brothers and sisters, will be praying for me, and that is what is keeping me strong. I will never give up and every day of my life I’ll always have faith that I was healed in the name of Jesus.
Sending a big hug to everybody and thanking you once more,
Jackson

Doulos' First Trip!
Peace, friends.
A mission journey is always "crazy", because we never know what is ahead of us. But, by faith, we believe that everything that happens is part of God's plan.
This was the first trip made with Projeto Vida's new bus, which we named DOULOS. We took 45 missionaries on this trip, leaving Curitiba on Wednesday, June 2, at 11pm. It was a very long trip because it was the first and thus we don't really know the bus. Some unexpected things happened, (one of them was the shift stick being bad), but we finally arrived to Foz do Iguacu at 10am on Thursday.
We went there to participate in a missionary conference. This conference happens every two years, and is very good to help personal and ministerial growth. These were days of learning and blessings in the lives of our missionaries. We were hosted by the First Baptist Church of Foz and were very welcomed by our brothers and sisters in Christ.
As always, God surprised us with His miracles. It was no different in Foz. One day we were going to the activities and the bus broke down. When we got there, Pr. Miguel was parking the bus and a part that connects to the steering wheel broke. If this part had broken while we were driving the bus we could have had a very serious accident. But because God always protects us we understood this to be His hand freeing us from that danger.
The hardest issue was that this happened on Saturday night and all automotive part stores were closed and would be closed all Sunday too. We were blessed by our brothers at the church who took us by car to the church we were staying at. It took them many trips to get us all there, since we were so many. One of our brothers took us to a place that carried the part that broke and there we managed to get a new one. We bought it and Pr. Marcos replaced it and fixed the bus.
We went back to Curitiba by the grace of God, and with many blessings over us.
We truly thank you for all your prayers - they have been keeping us from many accidents.
We ask you to keep praying since this month (June) our teams will be working at schools, parks and streets in several places around Brazil.

Sharing what we see...
It is our privilege to be a tool in God's hands. Here are a couple of things we got to see during the week of evangelism at the beach:
During their evangelism at the beach, in the city of Ipanema, a woman suffered with the loss of her 17-year-old daughter who was depressive and ended up committing suicide. While she shared her story she cried a lot. One of the missionaries shared the love of God with her and the lady accepted Jesus.
During the social work in Pontal do Sul, many people approached the counseling tent searching for help. The activities were held close to an amusement park whose owner let PV get power for their equipment from. The owner asked the missionaries to pray for her. When they went over to the amusement park to pray, she gathered all her staff so that they could hear their testimony and join them in prayer.
To God be all the glory!
