My spiritual journey found a new direction on the day I first stepped into Igreja da Cidade in Cruzeiro. I remember that moment clearly, as if it were yesterday. The moon was shining brightly, and I felt a mix of anxiety and curiosity. There was a sense of hope and renewal, something I had been searching for a long time, without really knowing where to find it. I walked slowly to the entrance of the church, feeling a positive energy pulling me inside.

As soon as I stepped into the church, I was greeted with warm smiles and welcoming words from the reception members. It was as if a weight had been lifted from my shoulders, and I could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The positive energy and welcoming atmosphere made me feel immediately at home. Each person I met seemed genuinely happy that I was there, and that made all the difference.

That day, I had the opportunity to meet Pastor Saulo. He approached me with a friendly smile and a welcoming gaze. With his wisdom, patience, and kindness, he has always been more than a spiritual guide; he has become a friend and mentor. His words are full of meaning and touch my heart deeply. He spoke to me about the church's mission, the importance of faith, and how the community supports one another.

Pastor Saulo's sermons are truly inspiring. Each Sunday, I eagerly await his messages, which always leave me with a new perspective and a renewed sense of purpose. He addresses relevant themes, shedding light on issues many of us face in our daily lives. His ability to connect biblical teachings with modern realities is impressive.

The gratitude I feel also extends to Pastor Saulo's family. They welcomed me with open arms, as if I had been part of the family forever. Each act of kindness, every word of support, and each gesture of love I received from them contributed to my spiritual and personal journey. They are a true blessing in my life, providing me with a sense of belonging and security that I had never experienced before.

The feeling of being part of something greater, of contributing to the well-being of others, brought a new dimension to my life. I look back with gratitude and admiration for all the moments I have lived since then. Igreja da Cidade is not just a place of worship; it is a vibrant community, full of love and understanding. I thank God for leading me there and for allowing me to meet such wonderful people.

I wholeheartedly thank Pastor Saulo and his family for all the support, love, and guidance they have given me. You are a living example of God's love, and I am eternally grateful to have crossed paths with you. May God continue to bless each of you, just as you have blessed my life.

REFLECTION: "On the spiritual journey, we find not only faith but also people who embrace us with love and guide us along the path of hope."
