FAITH TO SEE

by | Nov 26, 2023 | More Faith

HEY VIVA CHURCH! Join us for an inspiring Sunday service with our lead pastor, Frank Seixas! This week’s message, “Faith to See,” is based on Luke 24:13, where we encounter the fascinating journey of two individuals traveling to Emmaus. As they discuss recent events, Jesus Himself draws near, yet their eyes are restrained, preventing them from recognizing Him. This sets the stage for a powerful exploration of the dynamics between religion and revelation.

Pastor Frank will delve into the contrast between focusing on current events versus the timeless truths found in the Scriptures. The narrative unfolds to reveal the crucial distinction between being with Jesus and truly knowing Him. Despite their proximity to the Savior, their eyes are restrained, highlighting how quickly we can forget His promises and overlook His presence.

The message also explores the simplicity of asking for His presence versus having a genuine desire for Him to abide with us. From a simple guest, Jesus becomes the host at the table, breaking bread and opening the eyes of these travelers to recognize Him. Don’t miss this transformative sermon that challenges us to move beyond religion to a deep and personal revelation of Jesus. Don’t Miss Out!

  • Pastor Frank Seixas

    I am Frank the co-lead Pastor and with my wife Chris are the founders of VIVA Church in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. I first came to Canada in 1987, following God’s call to permanently move from Brazil to Canada. In August 1992, I started VIVA Church. In January 1994, I married Chris, and in 1996, I graduated from the Nazarene Bible College of Canada. Later I was awarded Doctor of Divinity (DDiv) from Canada Christian College in 2022.

    With a vision to reach people for Jesus, VIVA Church has grown to become a positive influence for the Kingdom, not only in Oshawa but also by planting churches internationally in countries like Cambodia and Uganda. Beyond our work at the local church, I (Frank) serve the body of Christ on the boards of other ministries and churches, and I am part of the Apostolic Ministry of MFI-Canada. I also travel to speak at conferences and many churches around the world.

    Chris and I have dedicated more than 30 years to serving at VIVA Church, witnessing the salvation and growth of many. We have been blessed with two beautiful daughters: Leticia, our youngest, and Gabriella, our oldest, who is married to Matheus.
