Sent by the Free Methodist Church in Portugal, Moisés and Jacione Souza serve as international missionaries to the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe, off Africa’s west coast. They launched the Free Methodist Church in São Tomé in January 2019 and are actively engaged in discipleship ministries for children, youth and adults. Many believers are growing in their faith, and the couple’s next goal is to identify and train leaders for pastoral ministry. Both Moisés and Jacione were ordained as elders at the 2020 annual meeting of the Free Methodist Church of Portugal. Since the church in Portugal is their sending church, this mission district operates under the European Area.
