Introduction / History

The Tapeba are a relatively large indigenous people who live in eastern Brazil. They are usually mixed race; few are entirely Tapeba today. Most speak Portuguese.


What Are Their Lives Like?

The Tapeba have long been a rural people threatened by urban growth. Urbanization eats up the land that they once farmed. They were once called squatters, but they achieved recognition as one of the 50 regional tribes.
Many of them earn a living by trapping and selling wild animals, fishing or selling produce.


What Are Their Beliefs?

The Tapeba are about half Roman Catholic, but most practice their indigenous religion.


What Are Their Needs?

The Tapeba need to put Jesus Christ first in their lives and forsake anything that interferes with their relationship with the Lord of lords.


Prayer Points

Pray for Tapeba leaders to encourage their people to seek and find the only Savior, Jesus Christ.
Pray for the Holy Spirit to do a new work in Brazil’s Roman Catholic church.
Pray for a hunger for spiritual truth among the Tapeba that will lead them to the cross.
