Brazil (Maués) Internship

More than 100 people groups in Brazil have never heard the gospel, largely due to geography or policies that isolate them from the outside world. Traditional missionary strategy has been to go and live among them in remote jungle villages. God has been opening a new and unexpected pathway to these remote peoples: Migration. Approximately 50% of Brazil’s indigenous peoples have migrated to the major cities of the Amazon region. An estimated 72,000 now live in the northern city of Manaus. World Team is committed to reaching these migrant populations.

Our teams seek to cooperate with the local church in strengthening and multiplying indigenous churches and leaders in the city of Manaus and the surrounding region with the final aim of encouraging, mentoring, training, and equipping them to serve as indigenous church planters to the greater Amazon region. Our vision for church multiplication is to make disciples that will form a network of indigenous churches in the Manaus region, and that these churches would have a missionary vision for sharing the gospel in the remote villages they came from.
