July 2026: - EBNESR Mission Reports

Future Ministers Camp

The Future Ministers event, held at the EBNESR Ministerial Training School, was attended by 18 teenagers and young adults between the ages of 11 and 24. The initiative aims to inspire, instruct, and equip them for ministry work.

Centered on the theme ‘But As for You’, based on the Epistles of 1 and 2 Timothy, the event focused primarily on encouraging participants to stand firm in their faith, maintain doctrinal integrity, and remain dedicated to their Christian calling, following the example of the young Timothy.
The program was designed to blend theological depth, practical training, and fellowship, featuring Bible classes, sermon preparation workshops, the Lord’s Supper & offerings, a Bible quiz, an evangelistic campaign, and recreational activities.

However, the highlight of the event was the baptism of Matheus Gomes (14), Breendon Almeida (11), and Enzo Gabriel Santos (12). Seeing their spiritual growth is truly inspiring. We are deeply grateful to God for each of you, whose prayers and faithful support continue to make an eternal impact on so many lives.

Serving Local
Churches Across Brazil

Our teachers’ mission goes far beyond the regular courses. Throughout this month, members of our team were out in the field actively serving congregations across different states, equipping leaders and supporting local evangelistic efforts.

Biblical Instruction and Evangelism
José Walter (CE): Teacher Alcides Marques taught an intensive course on the Book of Revelation for the church meeting in José Walter, helping the congregation understand the biblical text with clarity and historical context.

Peixinhos (PE): Teacher Madson Machado taught Exegesis and Hermeneutics, equipping participants with tools for deeper Bible study. He also led the evangelistic course ‘How to Read and Understand the Bible,’ which resulted in the decision and baptism of three new members for the Church of Our Lord.

Training and Expansion of Educational Courses

Teacher Elias Campos completed a travel schedule focused on teaching, satellite school expansion, and student recruitment:

Itarema (CE) and Patos (PB): He conducted a training session focused on men in Itarema and preached at the church in Patos, where EBNESR has several trained students.

Campinas (SP): He met with local partners to plan the steps for a future training center in the Southeast region.

Londrina (PR): He led an intensive course on the Book of Philippians, which brought together members from three local congregations. During the event, Elias Campos had the opportunity to meet two students already enrolled in our online course, as well as introduce the course to the other churches present.

FRUIT FROM THE TRAINING
(RAFAEL AND JULIANA SANTOS)

Rafael and Juliana Santos are currently in the final phase of their training. The couple brought to the school a solid background in youth ministry and evangelism. Today, they mentor and disciple the young people enrolled in the residential student course track. This care develops their day-to-day interactions, both during the school’s practical activities and in moments of recreation and fellowship.
Beyond their impact within the school, the couple’s testimony extends to their neighborhood; recently, they had the opportunity to share the Gospel with their neighbor, Agnália.
We are deeply grateful for all your support and prayers. It is thanks to your faithfulness that our school has the necessary structure to equip couples like Rafael and Juliana, individuals who are already making a real difference in the Kingdom of God.
