National Missionary in Brazil serving in Church Planting ministry.
At the age of nine, Florinda was given by her family to a cloistered convent to become a nun. She was quite satisfied as she thought she would get really close to God and get to know Him personally.
However, as the years passed, she became more and more disillusioned. Yes, she was being educated, but she was also treated as a servant. Eventually, Florinda was able to escape against the will of the convent by going through the back door of the kitchen.
Shortly after her escape, Florinda began to visit every church in the city until she could find peace with God. In response to Herman Effa's invitation, Florinda went forward and Ardath Effa had the joy of leading her to the Lord.
