Steve & Elba Dolan | Xingu Mission

Steve, Elba and Camilly Dolan latest update -- we are going home 22nd June 2006

Steve is a part of the Vineyard Church of Columbus and has been going on short-term mission trips to Brazil since June of 2001. The Xingu Mission at the time was looking for an accountant to handle their accounting functions in the United States and he took on this role in August of 2001.

Elba started working for the Bergen family when she was 16 years old. After two years of working and night classes, Elba went on to further her studies by attending the Christ for the Nations Bible School in Southern Brazil and graduated from their two-year program. She stayed on as a teacher at Christ for the Nations. Elba then moved back to Altamira to start our Bible School (ITA) which opened in January of 2001. Elba is presently our Bible School Director of ITA. ITA just had their first graduating class of 13 new leaders in December 2002.

Steve felt called to missionary work and continued to travel to Brazil. He went back down to the mission field in February of 2002 to get more acclimated to the culture and praise God met Elba. Elba and Steve prayed daily to discern whether or not it was the will of the Lord for Steve to be a missionary in Brazil. After several months of prayer and fasting they got their answer. God was calling Steve to the field to share the Gospel of truth to the Brazilian culture and to assist the Xingu Mission in expanding the Kingdom of God.

Steve and Elba got married on November 8th, 2003. Email: steve.dolan@xingu.org
