Hi All
As many of you know next year our family will be moving to Brazil as mission partners of CMS. Our plan is to be involved in outreach and church planting. As things stand at the moment we are planning on moving to Florianópolis, where I spent sometime last September meeting with Christian leaders in order to get a feel for the needs and opportunities in the city. The south of Brazil is a re
gion in need of missional efforts, with less thriving churches compared to other regions in Brazil. Like all large Brazilian city there is a large gap between rich and poor and a variety of social problems. Florianópolis has the nick name, 'ilha da magia' (island of magic), a reference to the occult activity contributing to the spiritual climate on the island. We’re excited by the prospect of ministering the light of Jesus there, offering prayer on the streets for people, discipling folk who come to faith, forming new church communities and partnering with churches in their outreach and offering training in different forms of evangelism. Katia is excited about the prospect of using her legal skills to help those in need and working with families to strengthen marriages and family life. We will keep this page updated with our posts and videos of our news and prayer requests as we prepare to go to Brazil and whilst we are out in Brazil. As well as prayer support we also need to raise financial support through link churches and individual supporters in order to support ourselves and our work whilst we are in Brazil. If you would like to partner with the Rocks Family financially you can set up a direct debit or give a one off gift through CMS’s website where you can find our profile page in the following link. http://www.cms-uk.org/tabid/743/language/en-GB/Default.aspx

God bless,
The Rocks Family
