International Newsletter February 2012


David and Jodi PierceIt was in 2006 when a worker from Steiger International made a connection with me at the Freakstock Music Festival in Germany and prayed with me. Two years later David Pierce was preaching in my church in Brazil. After he spoke he came to me and said: “I think God wants you and your band to come to our Steiger Radical Missions School.” Download pdf

Mike Vieira PreachingI accepted the challenge to be there and it was a life changing time for me. God dealt with many areas in my life and taught me how to seek God in a radical way.
When I arrived back in Brazil I started to review everything I had learned in Steiger and I continued to spend one day a week “seeking God” which was something I learned during the school. During this time I felt like God wanted me to start a Bible study at a skate park in Curitiba, Brazil where I live.

When I started the Bible study I used one of David Pierce’s books - “Dancing with Skinheads (and other Bible study topics)” - and took a chapter from the book for each meeting. In the beginning I had two skaters coming but in a few weeks there were 20. This really started to scare me. Today more than 200 people are coming!!

I call our Bible study “Project 180°”. God has been with us in such a miraculous way that it has transformed the whole region. In fact, one of the most famous TV channels in Brazil did a interview with us because so many famous artists and skaters are beginning to attend the meetings and most of them are now off drugs and their lives have been transformed.

The place where we have the Bible study is in one of the most dangerous corners in the city and one night a policemen came because he saw everyone and thought it was a meeting place for people using drugs. When he arrived he asked me, “Where are the drugs?” but when he saw my Bible he apologized. The policeman so felt God’s presence during our meeting that he himself is now attending our Bible study.

Mike being interviewedGod continues to do many amazing things every week and I am so grateful to God for what I have learned in Steiger. Luke Greenwood has invited me to be on the Steiger school staff at this years’ Radical Missions School in Germany and I hope to bring my future wife and a team from Curitiba to the school as well.

This is just one testimony of the amazing things God is doing through Steiger around the world. Thank you so much for your prayers and financial support that make it possible for Jesus to be proclaimed throughout the world.
