PAULO AND IVELI DINIZ

Serving in Brazil with CrossWorld

Paulo and Iveli minister in Brazil, making periodic trips to a Yanomami jungle station. Their work is primarily Bible teaching, literacy and the production of teaching materials in the Sanuma dialect. They are working to see completion of a new larger building for meetings. In the city they participate in several churches and visit hospitalized Indians, sometimes serving as interpreters.

Prayer Requests:

• Pray that God will restrain the influence of certain anthropologists, NGOs and government agencies that seek to “protect” the Indians from “western” influence. 

• Pray for new missionaries to help work in this station with an indigenous population of about 1800

• Pray for the discipline and guidance needed to work with potential Christian leaders in the tribe
