About us

Victoria Ministries

More than just a camp.

Victoria Ministries is a Brazilian non-profit, Christian, interdenominational, organization with a board of directors. Located in central Brazil it was founded in June 1997.
Our History
It began as a long time vision of Missionaries Dinho & Ginny Pereira to have a location where not only Christian Camp Ministry could happen with excellence but also  where future leaders could be trained.
For over 50 years P. Dinho and his wife Ginny had served as missionaries in camp ministry in Brazil with that goal. Then  in June 1997 the property was purchased and this organization was registered and its board of directors started to meet.
In the past 24 years since being founded, Victoria Ministries has been an example of God’s faithfulness to the vision He gives His servants. As Brazil grows and 86% of its population lives in an urban setting, Christian camp ministry is growing tremendously and reaching many.
Current Board of Directors 2020.
Today the Ministry continues to grow. Over 2,500 people are served here annually. Our camp ministry training reaches many Brazilians and our online courses reach clear across the Atlantic, to other portuguese speaking countries.

Statement of Faith
We Believe
  • …in the Holy Scriptures as originally given by God, divinely inspired, infallible, entirely trustworthy; and the supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct…
  • One God, eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit…
  • Our Lord Jesus Christ, God manifest in the flesh, His virgin birth, His sinless human life, His divine miracles, His vicarious and atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension, His mediatorial work, and His Personal return in power and glory…
  • The Salvation of lost and sinful man through the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ by faith apart from works, and regeneration by the Holy Spirit…
  • The Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the believer is enabled to live a holy life, to witness and work for the Lord Jesus Christ…
  • The Unity of the Spirit of all true believers, the Church, the Body of Christ…
  • The Resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.”
