Ongoing Impact!

In 2017, we ran a training alongside our ministry partners in Brazil. Deborah was one of our translators and trainees, and Levi Marti and Joseph Keith were the trainers who went to Brazil for that training. In January 2024, Joseph was part of the group that visited our ministry partners from South Korea at their English language immersion camp in Orlando, FL. Guess who was there?

Deborah!

During the 2017 training, she was connected with Awana Korea to serve in this English Camp. That was 7 years ago! Deborah has since become a professional English teacher and translator, but she continues to serve at this camp each year. Not only that, but she has recruited and equipped other Brazilian nationals to serve with her. This year alone, there were four other young professionals in Orlando. When she saw Joe, Deborah's comment was, "You realize I am here because of you." 

Base Ministry has trained and sent many interns for this English language camp and this is only one of their stories!

The training Deborah received and the connections she was given allowed the Lord to use her to impact hundreds of Korean children with the Gospel and to mobilize other young Brazilian professionals to serve the Lord for the past seven years! He is faithful and will continue the work that has begun until it is completed. Praise God!
