Carnaval Church Camp

During Carnaval in Brazil, the poorest children have no good options. They can either go out on the streets and risk getting lost, being propositioned, or in the middle of drunken violence, or they can stay home and probably have a drunk parent or be left to their own devices.
For the children of Cajueiro Claro, the church and Living Stones were able to provide another option: Carnaval church camp at the beach.

L to R: Flavia, Iasmim, Leticia, Sara (leader), Camila, and Paulo

Not only is the opportunity to go to the beach rare, but being able to go with families who love Jesus and love them is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Even some of the mothers of the Living Stones children were able to attend!

It was a wonderful time of fellowship, worship,

Prayer, 

and of course, fantastic food!

Special thanks to the Turners, who let them use the beach house, and to Flavio and Mercia Travassos, who have been working hard to put this amazing venture together!

Thank you Jesus!:)
