Eli Chaves Filho
Eli was born in Brazil but has lived in the United States for the past 18 years. The Lord is now sending him to Mozambique, in southeast Africa, where he will serve as a Bible teacher at the Maputo Biblical and Theological Seminary. In addition to teaching, he will be involved with mentoring students and raising church leaders. With the enabling of the Holy Spirit, his desire is to contribute to the edification of believers in Mozambique and to the formation of a local church solidly founded in the Word of God and faithful in proclaiming the Gospel of salvation of his Son, Christ Jesus.
