30 Years As a Witch Doctor
August 24, 2009
In Porto Alegre, Brazil there is a huge presence of religions like Macumba, and Umbanda. In fact, there are 30,000 Macumba Centers in the city. We have numerous people in our church plants that have spent their lives involved in these religions. Vilma is a member of the church in Vila Nova. Prior to conversion she spent 30 years as a witch doctor in Umbanda. Her daughter, Fabiane, was reached with the Gospel at the church in Vila Nova and through her Vilma came to know the Lord.
A couple weeks ago Vilma and one of her grandsons were also baptized into the church. They are the only Christians in their family. We are praying that Vilma's husband and her other grandson will come to know the Lord. You can watch her baptism below.
