This page is a list of Brazilian saints, blesseds, venerables, and Servants of God, as recognized by the Roman Catholic Church. These people were born, died, or lived their religious life in Brazil. The Catholic Church has been present in the territory of the modern nation of Brazil since the first Mass was said there in 1500 and today claims the largest population of Catholics of any country in the world. Nonetheless, the country has produced few officially canonized saints thus far.
