Joyce Hancock, our partner in mission, has asked the team to do a Vacation Bible School while they are in Brazil, plan a carnival, teach English, teach a computer class, as well as some manual labour. The team will be visiting several churches where they will share their testimonies and perform a mime.

Suzanne Ross — is a mother of 2, and a grandmother of 2, with 2 more on the way. Since retiring, she is now running her own business. Suzanne was on the Brazil Mission Trip in 2004, with the team that went to work with street boys. Suzanne was asked to be team leader on this Mission Trip because of her previous experience. This time the team will be working with Free Flight, which is a group that works with the poor in Brazil. |

Justin Stoodley — is married to Andrea (Melvin), and is new to the area. He is working for Big Brothers and Sisters of Saint John, and also doing some family counseling. Justin is thrilled and excited to be going to Brazil and is working hard on his Portuguese. This past year Justin's personal focus has been on following where God leads, which he feels includes the ministry work that will be done in Brazil. Justin is passionate about seeing God's love overwhelm people, which he hopes to see during his time in Brazil. |

Vince Duff — has been married to Betty for 40+ years and they've been KBC members since 1988. They have 2 grown children, and 5 grandchildren. Vince is an almost retired Chartered Accountant and Trustee in Bankruptcy, heading to a new position as Vice-Chair of the New Brunswick Insurance Board. Vince has felt the Lord calling him to short term missions for several years and the call could not be ignored this time and so Vince applied for the team. Vince has known Joyce Hancock for many years and he looks forward to serving with her. |
Please pray that the team will make a difference while in Brazil and that we will be good ambassadors for our Lord and the church at KBC.
