About the Holy Given School

So Jesus said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.  Therefore beseech the Lord of the Harvest to send out workers into His harvest.” (Mathew 9:37-38) 
God had a mission when He sent His son from Heaven to Earth to save us.  Now the Harvest is ripe, God is calling forth a company of people whose lives are totally given to Him and who will go to the nations.

Revival has a face…

You can see Jesus in the eyes of the needy, the broken and the lost.  He came with an unending love for each one that suffers and for the hungry multitudes.

Now we must do the same.  Stop for each one but believe for the multitudes.

We are called to carry His glory and to be among those who will bring whole nations to Jesus.

In order to achieve this purpose, Iris Ministries has partnered with Lesley-Anne Leighton and is pleased to offer our first Holy Given Iris Brazil International School of Missions in Heliópolis (São Paulo), Brazil.

Our school in Brazil is based in one of Latin America’s largest favela areas situated in Heliópolis, which has a population of approximately 120,000.
 
Live, love and learn among the needy.

Come and attend our bi-lingual missions school with National Director Pastor Dirceu Ribeiro and International Directors Lesley–Anne Leighton (B.Min, MTS) and Dr. Heidi Baker, as well as other Brazilian pastors, and national ministers and missionaries.

Serve with God’s people inside the favelas and poorer areas of Brazil.  Live among the poor alongside the at-risk youth and children.  Catch the Father’s heart for them.  Learn how to minister in Brazil in the context of a favela.  Be equipped to deal with the physical and spiritual challenges that exist in a developing nation.
Live among the needy, the saints and the passionate worshippers in the Holy Given: Iris Brazil International Missions School, based in São Paulo (Population: 20 million).

LOVE
Love is a four-lettered word that will cost you everything: a life completely laid down before the Lord; passion and compassion; giving of yourself without expecting to receive; feeling the beat of the Father’s heart, and giving yourself up to its beat; following the Lamb wherever He goes – even to the land of Brazil!
