The Trips have proven to be an effective way to experience firsthand the ministry of Restoration Ministries in the slums and underserved areas of São Paulo, Brazil. Pastors, ministry leaders, prospective missionaries, curious people, students, and potential supporters have had the opportunity to witness this dynamic ministry in action. While many participants come from the United States, many others have traveled from countries around the world, specially from Europe. Restoration Ministries carries a deep desire to serve the Kingdom of God in partnership with the broader Church. Rather than working in isolation, the ministry seeks to walk alongside other churches from around the world, building unity and strengthening what God is doing through His people. The vision is not limited to Brazil, but extends beyond its borders, reaching lives both locally and overseas.
Over the years, we have witnessed a beautiful exchange of blessings. Churches, teams, and individuals who come to serve are not only impacting lives here but are also being deeply impacted themselves. What often begins as an act of giving becomes a powerful experience of receiving: spiritually, emotionally, and relationally. We have seen God move in profound ways: restoring hope, transforming hearts, and calling people into deeper purpose. Many who come with the intention to serve leave with a renewed vision for their own ministries, families, and communities. It is a reminder that the Kingdom of God grows through connection, humility, and shared mission in Christ.
Serving with Restoration Ministries is a unique opportunity to experience God’s work in Brazil while using your gifts to bless others. Visitors not only serve alongside our team but also experience Brazilian culture, food, language and the life of the communities where we work.
