Pentecostalism in Brazil
The Pentecostal church is one of the fastest-growing Christian denominations in Brazil. The largest denomination is Roman Catholic, but as of 2006 Brazil had approximately 24 million Pentecostal Christians. At some points, churches were appearing as rapidly as one church per day. The growing movement in Brazil traces its roots to the Azusa Street Revival in 1906 in Los Angeles and, like Pentecostal movements in other countries, emphasizes a second act of grace following conversion that results in gifts of the Spirit such as glossolalia and healing.
