Update From IHOP-KC and URGENT REQUEST AT THE END!

Brothers and Sisters!
MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL!

As many of you know I have finally made my way to Kansas City MO to be apart of the International House of Prayer :) Its been a long time coming for me and the Lord has finally opened a door for me to come here.

I absolutely loved my season in Jacksonville, and I am so thankful for everyone that the Lord has put in my life and for everything that I was able to do.
The EDJ internship at celebration, working at Project SOS, leading a chapter of Bound4life, being a prayer leader at IHOP-JAX and so many other great opportunities I had in that city, I am so thankful for all of it. :)

The vision God put in my heart that ultimately led me making the move over here, was to prepare and equip my self for the next 5 to 10 years of journey.

I must confess with all the great things I was able to be a apart of in Jax, I was getting burnt out. I was finding my self sometimes running more on zeal and reputation, while lacking in my personal relationship with God and revelation from His Word. That is a dangerous place to be!

So I felt like coming to IHOP was an invitation from the Lord stop for season and to go back to a place of being a disciple in training, getting ready for my next mission. I am really thankful for that!

So I came out here to Kansas City to be a apart of the full time bible school called FSM (Forerunner School of Ministry) http://www.ihop.org/Group/Group.aspx?ID=1000008175
and to be part of a great program called The Call Institute.

What that looks like is that I take the main classes of FSM and I have a weekly meeting with Lou Engle and the call team. That is such an amazing opportunity!

I was accepted into the program by invitation of the Engle family, TCI only accepts new students in the fall, but having been a part of The Call team times before like In San Diego and DC, Lou and Therese made a way for me to join the team in the middle of the school year instead of waiting till August for me to start the program... WHAT A HUGE HONOR AND BLESSING!

I've been taking classes since the begging of January and I am loving it!
My first class is a Cristology 101 class called "Excellencies of Christ" thought by one of my favorite teachers Allen Hood, and I'm on the prayer room at least 24 hours weekly!


HERES WHERE YOU CAN HELP!

I need to raise $1500 by next week Feb. 2 to pay for the spring semester of FSM.
The best way you can help me is by donating online through my paypal account.

If you can help with any amount, $10 - $25 - $50 - $100 - $500
It will make a HUGE difference!!!

I have the most amazing mother and she has been and will always be my biggest supporter. She believes in the call of God in my life and she will not let me quit because of money! She will be covering as much she can for me to keep going :)


Please pray about how much can you can sow in to my life as a Intercessory Missionary, and please always keep praying for me!

Thank you guys so much!
I miss you all!

I am so thankful we are in this journey together!
Blessings!

your Brazilian Brother
