CMA INTERNATIONAL
By ARILDO Carvalho
“ INSTEAD , you must worship Christ as Lord of your life . And if someone asks about your hope as a believer , always be ready to explain it ” ( 1 Peter 3:15 , NLT ).
There are moments in our walk with Christ that we are confronted , questioned , and even discriminated against , but we have to remember who we are and who we serve at all times . This will explain what we believe .
The world is suffering from the pandemic , and things are starting to change , cities with restrictions and churches suffering and unable to hold their meetings , just like us at CMA Brazil .
But in these comings and goings of the outbreaks of covid- 19 , we realize God ' s care for his people . We had to plan monthly , not half-yearly , and think about how to use everything that was
happening to spread the Word of God .
We were blessed by God , who gave us members with hearts willing to serve and challenged us to work . We prepared breakfast in our “ CMA Garage ” every first Saturday of the month . We welcomed our biker brothers to talk about motorcycles , travel , maintenance , and spiritual life . We have a moment to share the Word of God in a devotional , and we pray . We also had moments when we brought comfort and food to the neediest , showing God ' s love for the unprotected , which happened in our social actions , always with success , as everyone tried to do their best .
In everything we do , we show God ' s mercy and love for everyone , for to Him is all honor and glory . CMA
