Paulo and Ireni Mota
Paulo and his wife Ireni, have been working in São Paulo since 1988. Both Brazilian nationals, they worked on the streets forming small groups and bible studies. In 1991, they founded Restoration Ministries, a World Venture ministry committed to transforming underprivileged children and their communities through the Good News of Jesus Christ. “Restoration Ministries is about relationships,” says Paulo, “We get attached, we invest personally. Whatever the outcome, good or bad, we still invest everything in people. I have invested my life in people who are now investing their lives in other people.” Today we have wonderful friends who are the staff of Restoration Ministries. They were trained to step up to leadership. They are amazing people, and God is truly using them to make a difference in these communities. Click here to learn more.

Hi My name is Rodrigo I am 26 years old, I started participating of Restoration Ministries when I was 7 years was through music class.
Everything started because I love music, it is my passion.
Over time I accepted Jesus and thank God I’m up to today in the way of the Lord.
Now I work full time in ministry, I do the Agita (VBS) and visit homes program. I had ben envoled in a motorcycle accident last year I had a brain surgery, I had to stay a month at the hospital, and the doctor taught that I won’t survive. But by God’s power I am alive with not side effect. Praise the Lord I see this event as I was born again.
My joy it is to serve Him! Thanks a lots for all your prayers to me.
