How She Serves: Children’s ministry
​
I am Eriomar Maia. I was saved by the grace of Jesus Christ in 1994. In addition to the gift of salvation, God has given me three precious gifts: my wife Daniele, whom I have been married since 1995, and my two children, Damaris and John.
Looking back, I can identify three phases during my Christian life:
The first phase - formation. I was discipled and trained for ministry by godly men in the local church and at Brazil's finest seminary (SIBIMA).
​
The second phase - pastoral ministry. I spent 19 years shepherding the local church (discipling and training others) in the cities of Fortaleza and Maceió.
​
The third phase - church planting. Today, we have been serving in missionary ministry in Aracaju (Northeast Brazil) since 2018. I have the joy of seeing God saving sinners and starting a new church.
It is a privilege to participate in God's grace in action in all phases of ministry.
​
I am also very grateful to be part of the BGFM Global family and its vision to assist the Local Church in local and global ministry.
​
Your support for us and our ministry is greatly appreciated.
