GLOBAL PARTNERS AROUND THE WORLD
Tim and Andrea Blazer – Brazil
Hello Magnify family! The start of a new year provides an opportunity to reflect and praise God for His work and faithfulness. Mountain tops and valleys marked the year 2024 for our family and ministry, and many times it seemed that His primary work was what He was doing IN us as He was preparing for what He would do THROUGH us.
Our church plant in Brazil was grateful for the provision of a tent which we anticipated being a temporary solution for our meeting space. As the year ended, the church was still meeting in the tent and still waiting on the building permit.
We rejoiced as this young church called its first Brazilian lead pastor, Pastor Ronie, and nearly 30 new members joined the church.
During this year of home assignment, we are visiting all our partner churches and families; both our daughters, Moriah and Julea, were married; Robert is moving to Colombia to start his missionary service; Tim is also finishing his Doctoral program through Liberty University; and Levi is finishing high school and starting college.
We are already anticipating and preparing for what God has in store when we return to Brazil. Andrea will be involved with mentoring Brazilian pastors’ wives, expanding the orphanage ministry, working with the women on the daughter church planting team, and assisting Tim more as she transitions to empty nest. Tim will be teaching at two local seminaries, expanding his partnership with other seminaries, working with the daughter church planting team, and mentoring and working on the building project for our young church.
