December 27 - How Isadora Found Her Voice

  • 0:01 - 0:03
    Thirty-one baptisms.
  • 0:03 - 0:05
    Thirty-one lives changed.
  • 0:05 - 0:08
    And it all started with one invitation.
  • 0:09 - 0:13
    Isadora never imagined she would be here.
  • 0:13 - 0:16
    She used to be quiet,
    keeping her thoughts to herself.
  • 0:16 - 0:18
    But when a friend invited her
  • 0:18 - 0:20
    to a meeting at a Seventh-day
    Adventist church,
  • 0:20 - 0:23
    something stirred in her heart.
  • 0:23 - 0:26
    She heard about Jesus in a way
    she never had before.
  • 0:26 - 0:29
    His love felt real and personal.
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    She couldn't ignore it.
  • 0:32 - 0:35
    When you meet Jesus,
    it's something inexplicable...
  • 0:36 - 0:38
    That love impacted me in such a way
  • 0:38 - 0:40
    that I decided to give my life to Him.
  • 0:41 - 0:43
    And once she experienced His love,
  • 0:43 - 0:46
    she couldn't keep it to herself.
  • 0:46 - 0:49
    The quiet, reserved girl
    became someone new.
  • 0:50 - 0:52
    She became bold, passionate,
  • 0:52 - 0:55
    ready to share Jesus everywhere she went.
  • 0:58 - 1:01
    Before I met Jesus,
    I was a very shy person.
  • 1:02 - 1:04
    So that was already
    a huge difference in my life,
  • 1:05 - 1:06
    being able to develop.
  • 1:07 - 1:09
    She found joy in serving others.
  • 1:09 - 1:10
    When she was offered a scholarship
  • 1:10 - 1:14
    to attend the Seventh-day Adventist school
    in the Northeast of Brazil,
  • 1:14 - 1:16
    she jumped at the chance.
  • 1:17 - 1:20
    This school offers students
    the chance to grow in Jesus
  • 1:20 - 1:23
    and opportunities to share Him
    with others in the community!
  • 1:23 - 1:27
    And because she shared,
    lives were changed.
  • 1:28 - 1:30
    I fell in love with preaching...
  • 1:31 - 1:32
    and through this missionary work,
  • 1:32 - 1:35
    I was able to see lives
    transformed by Jesus.
  • 1:36 - 1:39
    Friends, classmates, and even strangers
  • 1:39 - 1:43
    are discovering the same love
    that transformed her life.
  • 1:44 - 1:45
    And she's not stopping.
  • 1:45 - 1:48
    Isadora can't help but continue to share.
  • 1:48 - 1:50
    But there's a challenge.
  • 1:50 - 1:53
    Right now, the school doesn't have
    a proper place for worship.
  • 1:54 - 1:58
    Students gather wherever they can,
    but space is limited.
  • 1:58 - 2:03
    This 13th Sabbath, your offering
    will help build a new church
  • 2:03 - 2:05
    so students like Isadora
  • 2:05 - 2:09
    can continue sharing Jesus
    with even more people.
  • 2:11 - 2:12
    This church that will be built
  • 2:13 - 2:16
    will be a place where people feel welcomed
    and can see Jesus in us.
  • 2:17 - 2:20
    Thank you for your 13th Sabbath offering.
  • 2:20 - 2:24
    Together, we can build
    a place of worship in Brazil.
