The religious situation in Brazil

• Roman Catholicism is the dominant religion in Brazil but it is often mixed with spiritism.

• Protestantism has grown rapidly in Brazil in recent decades while Roman Catholicism has declined.

• Pray for the work of Editora Fiel in the provision of pastors’ conferences.

• Pray for the greater usefulness and wider distribution of good Christian literature in Portugese.
