SAMARITAN STRATEGY PROGRAM (SamS)
Rio Grande do Sul, Phase 3a – Training of Trainers

Leo & Rebeca Wilkerson

On Saturday afternoon, we met to prepare a lesson.  We were responsible to help people tell their testimonies, sharing their experiences with Disciplines of Love and Seed Projects in the local church.  We elicited experiences that were simple and close to their reality, so that the SamS participants could see the connection between application and what they heard.  A special testimony called our attention, shared by Mrs. Rosane, 52 years old.  She asked that we would write her testimony, because she is still in an adult literacy class.  She told us that a great encouragement for her learning how to read and write was the Harvest lessons taught in her church.  One of her first readings was the story of Juan on the book If Jesus Were Mayor, which inspired her to serve her community with love.  She told us that, after she read the story, she imagined Jesus taking her by the hand and going over the city of Parobé, showing what she could do to help.
