I was born and raised in Brazil where my parents serve as missionaries. One Wednesday evening, when I was about 7 years old, as I got ready to pray for my food, I realized that if I died, I would go to hell. So right there I accepted Christ as my personal Savior, and a few years later I was baptized. Later on, as I was growing in Christ, God brought the passages of the Great Commission before me, and I started asking myself "why not me? Why shouldn’t I go and tell the world about Jesus?" That is when I knew that God wanted me to give my life to be a missionary.
