Carlos Martins: Billionaire Turned Humanitarian Missionary All In

After making a fortune from the English language schools he created in Brazil, Carlos Martins and his wife, Vania, turned their attention to serving the Lord and their family. In hopes of helping their son achieve his dream of serving a full-time mission, they served a humanitarian mission on the border of Venezuela. By the Martins’ count, they were able to help 20,000 refugees relocate. On this week’s episode, Martins discusses how the English schools came to be, and how he came to see that concern for his son was only a means to an end for the Lord. 

"If we allow the Lord to guide our path, and we give up our own plan, in order to believe His miracles, unpredictable miracles of multiplication, will happen in our everyday life."https://deseretbook.com/p/176264?variant_id=200328-ebookCarlos speaks at BYU- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nduEUAnTGQ
