The team of 21, made up of several of Island Breeze staff from Hawaii, Samoa, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, USA, Tonga, and South Africa left Tampa on October 1st for the 4-week outreach to Brazil. They were joined by two other YWAM groups; GX Jam and Team Extreme.

The preparatory work leading up to the Brazil outreach had not been easy. All hell seemed to broke loose and it was a battle between the forces of darkness and the forces of God. Prior to the event, the Chairman of the Crusade was involved in a car accident and had to undergo surgery two weeks before the crusade. Voodoo rituals were done in front of his house and he had received death threats prior to the accident. Many witches came to the city as they received a direction that an opposition very strong is going to happen. But Christians in Londrina and around the world were praying and had taken their stand in the spirit realm, too.
 
The three groups arrived in Londrina on the week of the event and joined the local churches with worship and warfare. The Brazilians in the group took a bold stand in calling forth their people through the celebration of cultural dances and music of their people as an act of spiritual warfare. It was the prayers of God's people and the joy of the Lord that moved the hand of God to see the release for the crusade both in the spiritual and the physical.
 
As a result, the witches fled from the city the day before the first performance was scheduled because the 'forces were too strong to fight'. During the 4-week outreach, a total of 15,180 people flooded to the altar responding to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Eight-five percent of this total were first-time commitments. 

The team arrived home on October 27th, picked up four more team members and then drove out on October 31st for a 3-week outreach to Kansas.
