Old Brazilian pentecostal woman in Belem, Brazil:
"When I am in need, I ask for help from my God, who can do it all. My God never lets me go a day without lunch, because I kneel every day in prayer. I ask Jesus to multiply my provisions. Jesus blesses me; He blesses my salary and our food. I tell you that since I've been a crente, I've always had what I need. Thank God that I have two pairs of shoes that my children gave me.It is the Holy Spirit who operates in our lives to free us from want, thank God."
Dona Castanhal, 70 Years old AG member, Belem, Brazil.
