Este não é mais um sítio de religião, como tantos que por aì proliferam. Infelizmente, o mundo religioso está dominado pelo materialismo e pelos interesses de projecção pessoal e financeiro de muitos dos seus líderes. Deturpam a verdade com mentiras e usam a ignorância das pessoas que na sua boa fé neles acreditam, aproveitando-se dos seus bons sentimentos e, quantas vezes, também do seu dinheiro. Não sou devoto de nenhuma religião. Todas as religiões, ainda que possam ter alguns fundamentos de bondade, são conduzidas por homens e para homens, pelo que estão viciadas nos seus caminhos. Eu creio no Senhor Jesus Cristo. A minha "religião" é a Pessoa de Jesus Cristo. A palavra religião significa religar (re+ligare) e, de facto, apenas o Senhor Jesus Cristo re-ligou o que estava separado, isto é, o Homem com Deus (1 Timóteo 2:5,6). É por isso que a minha fé não se baseia nas tradições humanas ou em qualquer religião (seja ela católica, evangélica, ortodoxa ou outra), mas nas Palavras do Senhor Jesus Cristo, tais como se encontram exaradas na Bíblia Sagrada, a única regra de fé espiritual em que faço pautar toda a minha meditação e conduta de vida.

Dear
Brethren,
The
Madalena Evangelical Church was founded in 1957 through the ministry of Viriato
Dias Sobral with a total number of twelve members. However, it was only in 1985
that the Church was able to obtain its legal status.
This
local Chuch has through the years
fulfilled its purpose of proclaiming the Gospel of our Lord Jesus
Christ, making disciples, baptizing them in the Name of the Fathar, the Son and
the Holy Spirit and teaching them to keep all things that the Lord has
commanded. The Church is also concerned with the civic development of its
members and of the people around.
This
local Church has always gathered in a small rented space at Rua da Cabine, at
the Madalena quartier of the city of Vila Nova de Gaia (Porto). For over 50
years, this space was sufficient for the development of the work, however, at
this stage, this same place where the Chuch has its meetings is showing
worrying and growing signs of degradation that justifies a deep intervention on
its rehabilitation, but the owner is not prepared to do any works.
It
was because of this situation that the assembly decided to move forward and
apply for a building license, aiming at the construction of a new hall in a
piece of land offered to the Church at Largo da Cabine, Madalena, also in the
Vila Nova de Gaia region.
The
Church has been saving money for this project over the last 30 years. The
budget for this project is about 150.000,00 euros (One hundred and fifty
thousand euros), and the building will be made up of 2 floors, with a main
hall, 2 support rooms, a small cabinet and several support areas.
The
amount so far collected by the brethren in the Church is sufficient for the
preparation works in the terrain and the implementation of part of the building
itself. The Chuch is permanently collecting money from its members by means of
a monthly special collection for the purpose of completing the construction,
however, due to the scarce resources of the believers that are part of this
local assembly, we are asking for your financial help, so that we may be able
to continue and complete this work. Every gift will be more than welcome and
will certainly constitute a very useful help for us!
Please
pray for this work as well.

"LEITURA DE DOMINGO"
Ora como alguém já disse, Isto “é pura blasfémia.” Este homem não conhece Deus, não conhece o caracter de Deus, e não conhece os desígnios de Deus.
