WHO WE ARE
Our purpose at MFP is to develop mature followers of Jesus Christ, develop Christian Character through Bible reading, growing in the Gospel, connecting in community, and serving missions.
In December 2005, located in a small neighborhood of Brusque and sparsely populated (at the time) where most of the residences were far from the church and it was surrounded by vegetation, the Church had another name "Casa de Deus" and only had a few members. In 2011, Pastor Egon Ferreira took office as presiding pastor of the church and the name changed and became MFP - Ministério Força na Palavra. God had special plans for our community of faith and throughout its history, until today, the church grows, always based on faith, love and service.
Currently, MFP - Ministério Força na Palavra has entered the digital era, (physical and digital Church) reaching members from other places in Brazil and the world who worship with us and participate in our activities over the internet.
We are a Christian association with the aim of bringing families together in addressing their social, moral, psychological and spiritual difficulties.
We operate in these four areas of work with a professionally qualified support team.
Adding to our work, we have a HANIR Evangelical Music School (a word in Hebrew that means: "apprentice") run by the music graduate professor Fernando Dácio, with students in the age group of
“4 to 99” years, for motivation and knowledge of music as a therapeutic form together with Psychologist Marcieli, also treating cognitive issues with children and young people with comorbidities through the Ritmando Project.
Furthermore, we care about teaching languages such as Hebrew and English, as well as enriching the knowledge and globalized interaction of various subjects pertinent to geography and biblical history, since the entire biblical period takes place over a period of more or less 4,000 years, involving several civilizations.
Our mission and purpose
Develop mature followers of Jesus Christ.
MFP's mission is to bring people to Jesus, edify Christians and together we worship God, serving Christ in the community of Brusque and in the world. Therefore, we believe that through Love, Faith and Service, we will be a reference for an evangelizing, engaged, welcoming, consecrated church and that, through the training of disciples, we will make a difference in this world.
MFP desires to be a church that disciples, equips and encourages members, believers to serve and live on mission so that others can come to the saving knowledge of Christ.
"Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ."
Colossians 1:28
OUR VISION & WHAT WE BELIEVE
MFP is God's Church and as we seek God's heart for our future, we pray in prayer for God's direction and empowerment for the vision He has given us for how to act as a church. Our church exists to develop mature followers of Jesus Christ. We seek to do this by being a people who grow in the Gospel, connect in biblical community and serve on mission.
We believe in a Triune God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit)
God the Father, in His magnificent love for humanity, sent His only Son, Jesus, to this world so that all who believe in His Name will be saved from condemnation and have access to eternal life.
We believe that through his death on the cross, we have forgiveness of our sins and that through his resurrection, we are justified. We believe that the Word of God, in its essence, is powerful to transform and convert lives to the Truth that is Jesus Christ.
