Pray to the Lord of the Harvest

As many of you already know, Projeto Toque in São Paulo has moved to a new house in an area called Liberdade. Our phone number has also changed to 005511 3208 54 15. Now with all the missionaries installed, our routine suffered some changes. We are working not only on Wednesday nights, but also on Friday nights, so if you are free on those nights and want to be part of the street work, please contact us, on other days of the week (except Saturdays and Sundays) we have the street outreach in the afternoon.

The work has been very productive, we have been trying to adjust our time to the needs, our partnership with Missão Cena has consolidated.

We are very happy about the activities with the street children, which we make in partnership with Missão Cena and the Salvation Army, the number of children that have participated of the activities increased significantly. Each time, more and more children have had the chance to hear about Jesus, and also to receive His love through this team.

The problem now is that many have showed interest in getting out of the streets and changing their lives, but sadly the Christian shelters that receive those kids are closed or they cannot receive anybody else because they are full, and the main reason of this crisis, is the lack of workers.

I believe that is why Jesus asked us to pray to the Lord who owns the harvest, that he will send workers to gather his harvest (Mathew 9:38), He did not ask us to pray for money, buildings (which are also important) but so that people would come to do His work. A friend says that it’s easy to raise money because money doesn’t have free will in itself, but people do.

We have prayed for that, and God is answering, last month Melanie, from Germany, who is part of Steiger, gave up everything and to come to Brazil to join our team, we are very happy with her arrival.

As I said the need is great, we need more people willing to work full time. People who like to teach, to take care and to disciple.

When I say we need I´m not only talking about Projeto Toque, but about all the Projects and Missions that are our partners, such as CENA, Três Corações, ABBA, Jeame, Eagle, etc… For we are the body of Christ spreading the Good News of the Kingdom of God.

I ask you to pray, that God will send workers who are willing to lay down everything to be His feet, His hands and His mouth here on this earth.

Caetano and Fernanda´s wedding

On the 15th of march, Caetano and Fernanda Projeto Toque´s missionaries got married!!

Here are some pics for our friends who couldn´t be there. It was a very beautiful and special day, May God bless this union!!

Keep praying

We have really good news, on feb 18th that guy we wrote about and asked for prayer on the post a Call for life came to our house asking for help, his attitude was very different from the other times, he was aware of his situation very humble and willing to change, on the same day he took all his things where he was living and went to our house in Piracicaba, and 2 weeks ago he was baptized, we ask you to continue praying for him as he starts this new journey and new life with Jesus. We are very happy for his life transformation!

Woman´s day

On the 8th of march was celebrated the woman’s day, and every year on this date we go to the streets, brothels and squares where woman are in prostitution, we give them small gifts and a card to remember them how valuable they are for God and for us, it can be flowers, chocolate, a mirror, the gift itself isn’t so important but the most important is that they fell special and that somebody remembered them. It seems small and in fact it is, but they are so grateful and they become much more open for the message.
Many people think that it is very hard to show God’s love to the lost, but it isn’t.
If you have always wanted to do something for God, reaching out these woman, that´s a good opportunity, for sure there are people in your city, country even on your street that needs to understand better God’s love for them.
Use your God given creativity!
God bless you!!
