In the beginning of this year ('98) CNN
broadcasted a one-week T.V. series called 'Brazil - A Giant Awakes', about the
many positive transformations the country has being going through. After 3 years
with very low inflation rate, Brazil is now attracting new foreign investments, resulting
in more jobs and social improvements.This
new social order cannot be disconnected from what has been going on in the spiritual
spheres: In the last 20 years the Brazilian born-again population grew from less than 5
million to almost 20 million people.

Overflowing love amongst the believers, a deepening of
relationships and a radical determination to share this love with every unbeliever are
present trademarks of the Brazilian Church.
Go to the Nations Link is one of the many missionaries
movements born in Brazil as a result of the growth of the Church there. Our vision is to
co-operate in the process of reviving the Church in Europe and to establish partnerships
to send missionaries to other nations.
