Hello! Bom dia :)

This May, I’ll be headed to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for a Let’s Start Talking project. I’ll be there for six weeks with a small team from LFC (Longhorns for Christ), a campus ministry I’m part of at The University of Texas at Austin.

This opportunity means so much to me because language and faith have shaped how I see the world, and it’s an honor to be present with others — to listen, learn, and build genuine relationships across cultures in both English and Portuguese.

Let’s Start Talking centers on one-on-one conversations using passages from the Bible as a tool for language exchange, creating space for thoughtful dialogue about life, identity, and meaning in a respectful and relational way.

I would be thankful for your support through donation or prayer as I step into this mission to serve, build relationships, and share God’s love through presence, conversation, and hospitality.

Sincerely,
Liz Moctezuma

Thank you for your time, and for being present in my life and journey.
