Jonson Tadeu is known as “Pastor Jonson”. Once a well known Brazilian soccer player, Jonson returned to his home town to pastor a church. He serves the community of Trapiche which is in the neighborhood of Maceio, Brazil. The Trapiche Baptist church has a congregation of over 300, mostly poor to lower working class. The church has weekend services, sports initiatives, and after school programs.

Additionally, Pastor Jonson hosts meals and hospitality events. We are praying that the Baptist Church of Trapiche will become a gateway for NCCC, enabling us to serve the people of Brazil through KidsGames, medical trips, compassion teams, and teaching English as a second language.
