Missões Mundiais

What Missões Mundiais does

Missões Mundiais (legal name: Junta de Missões Mundiais da Convenção Batista Brasileira, or JMM) is a Brazilian nonprofit religious organization founded in 1907 and headquartered in the Tijuca neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro. It operates as the international missionary arm of the Convenção Batista Brasileira (CBB), the largest Baptist convention in Latin America, which comprises roughly 8,890 churches, 4,965 congregations, and 1,719,809 faithful members. JMM deploys Brazilian missionaries and runs development, humanitarian, and religious programs across more than 30 countries spanning South America, the Caribbean, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, South and Southeast Asia, and Melanesia, with active missionary presence in at least 15 European countries. Its core program portfolio includes PAM (Programa de Adoção Missionária), a subscription-style missionary adoption program that lets individuals, companies, groups, and churches commit recurring monthly donations starting at R$30; Bíblias para os Povos, a Bible translation and distribution initiative (including audio/video formats in languages such as Tawala in Papua New Guinea and distribution to refugees and persecuted Christian communities); and PEPE (Programa de Educação e Proteção à Infância), a socio-educational child protection program operated through the PEPE Network across Brazil and internationally.

The organization has no proprietary technology platform; its digital infrastructure consists of a WordPress-based website (missoesmundiais.com.br), the Vocacionados JMM online relationship portal (vocacionados.jmm.org.br) for donations and PAM subscriptions, an Android mobile app distributed via Google Play, and standard analytics/advertising integrations with Google and Meta. JMM monetizes entirely through charitable donations rather than commercial revenue: three primary streams are (1) recurring and one-time donations from individuals, companies, groups, and churches supporting missionaries and projects; (2) campaign-specific collections including Bíblias para os Povos (starting at R$40), humanitarian emergency responses, and the annual Campanha 2026; and (3) PAM recurring subscriptions. Distribution is multi-channel, spanning traditional church offering plates across the CBB network, a Central de Atendimento call center, WhatsApp (21 98055-1818), PIX, bank transfers across Bradesco/Banco do Brasil/Itaú/Santander/Caixa, and a distributed network of missionary mobilizers. JMM reports 51-100 employees, regional coordinators across Europe, the Middle East/North Africa/Sahel, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, and named program leadership including Executive Director João Marcos Barreto Soares. The organization explicitly identifies certain Asian and African countries as "Países Fechados" (Closed Countries) where operations are undisclosed for missionary security reasons.
