Here is the Palavra da Vida - Sul Center of Events. It is beautiful. Their mission is to take city teens and young adults from primarly Porto Alegre put them in a wilderness/adventure camp environment to communicate the story of Jesus with them.

They do an awesome job of getting area public schools - most of them in the poorest of communities - into the camp to do high ropes, zip line, soccer, volleyball, challenge course, rock wall, and much more. Then right before they serve them one of the most incredible lunches known to man - they explain how to have a relationship with Jesus.

Last Wednesday they had such a day camp with 140 students attending. 70 of them responded to the gospel message. Now comes the cool part - getting them plugged in to a small group Bible study.
