Becoming a Tool Forged for God's work

My name is Douglas Oliveira. At the time I'm writing this, I am 34 years old and from São Paulo, Brazil.

I am a servant of Yeshua, a professional athlete riding bikes for Christ across nations, using sports as a bridge to support evangelists and be part of the great harvest of souls.

When I first joined GNE, I wasn’t sure about stepping into leadership. But through the encouragement and mentorship of others in the group, I began leading and training other athletes.

That journey helped me grow in boldness and faith, reminding me that God equips those He calls.

I am truly grateful for GNE and excited to see how God will continue using this community to impact lives all around the world.

To me, GNE stands for “The One...” the one who is passionate to surrender their life and become a tool forged in God’s hands here on Earth.
