APRIL 2025
Dear Friends and Supporters,
Greetings in the precious name of Jesus! We pray this letter finds you well and blessed. As we reflect on the month of March, we are excited to share the many wonderful things God has done here in Brazil. His presence has been undeniable, and we are continually amazed by the lives He is touching. We thank you for your constant prayers, support, and encouragement that enable us to continue the work of the Lord here.
This month, we had the honor of hosting a large group of pastors from the United States in Brasília for a powerful Youth Retreat. Pastor Hattabaugh and his dedicated team made a lasting impact on the young people here. Their ministry brought refreshing and revitalization to the youth and families in our churches. Additionally, my wife and I had the privilege of ministering in Belo Horizonte at their Youth Retreat. It was a time of great revival, as many young people made fresh commitments to serve God with passion and urgency. We have never experienced a move of God quite like this one before. The hearts of the youth were so open and hungry for more of God. It was truly a mighty outpouring of His Spirit, and we are trusting that these young people will continue to impact their communities for His glory.
My wife had the wonderful opportunity to travel to São Paulo this month to minister at the Ladies Conference. The Lord moved powerfully, and many women were encouraged and empowered to live for Him with greater purpose. In addition, we had the privilege of hosting Children’s Evangelist and Associate Pastors Loren and Lilly Gaines. They blessed us by ministering at our local church and our district headquarters church. As children’s evangelist, their family lead the kickoff service for our newly started IPUB Plano Piloto Children’s Ministry. The excitement in the air as the children’s ministry launched was overwhelming, and we believe it will have a lasting impact on the next generation.
This month, we held our monthly Ladies Event, which was incredibly special as Sister Lilly Gains was our guest speaker. Her message was one of encouragement, faith, and the love of God, and the ladies in attendance were blessed by her ministry.
Additionally, we had our community outreach service, "Dia da Família" (Family Day). This event was a great success, and we were able to conduct an evangelistic outreach the day before. We met many new faces from our local community, and it was a beautiful opportunity to show the love of Christ and invite them to be a part of what God is doing here.
In 1 John 4:19, we are reminded that "we love because He first loved us." Every event, every service, and every outreach is motivated by the love of God. His love compels us to reach out to the lost and to serve those in need. It is His love that continues to flow through us to others, and we are grateful to be vessels of His love in Brazil.
We cannot thank you enough for your prayers and support. It is because of you that we are able to continue in this work, and we are seeing God's kingdom advanced here in Brazil. We ask that you continue to pray for us, for the souls we are reaching, and for the work that lies ahead. Thank you for partnering with us in fulfilling the Great Commission. Your love and commitment are truly making a lasting impact, not only in our lives but also in the lives of the many people we are reaching here.
In Christ's Love and Service,
The Gayles
