Resumo: |
This thesis deals with the role of religion (Baptist) in the life of Brazilian immigrants living in Greater Toronto Area (GTA), Ontario, Canada, identifying the importance of migration and religion in transnational and migratory processes. The text highlights the growth of Brazilian migration in Canada through the religious studies tools. It adresses the beginning of Portuguese-speaking ethnic Baptist churches in this region since the late 1970s, in partnership with some Canadian Baptist churches, which resulted in the organization of the Association of Portuguese-speaking Baptist Churches in Canada in 1998. It examines a particular Canadian Baptist Church, Central Baptist Church (CBCO) in Oakville (Ontario), which in 1987 began one of the first works to reach the Portuguese-speaking community residing in this city. It works with the concepts of diaspora, identity, migration and networks to elaborate our analysis. It seeks to understand how these migrants constituted from these churches a network of support, their social, economic, visa situation, place of origin in Brazil, conditions that allowed to create new connections among them. The hypothesis of this research is that the ethnic church plays a role that permanently reinforces the migrant status of its members, living the paradigm of keeping him/her on the frontier of integrating him/her into the destination society without completely breaking his/her ties with his/her home society . From the field visits in two distinct periods, some interviews were conducted with the leaders, members, and people who only attended CBCO. This made it possible to verify the relevance of this ethnic church in his/her experience as migrant. |
