This research analyzes the reasons for the growing number of Pentecostals in the neighborhood of Perus, northwest of Sao Paulo city, from the phenomenon of urban migration. It s HDI (Human Development Index) ranks in 81th position among the 96 districts in the capital of São Paulo and the district has a large concentration of Pentecostal churches. 20.9% of the population declared themselves with this religious affiliation on the 2000 Census. The index is high when it is compared with the average population Pentecostal of São Paulo, estimated in 11.9%. Perus is part of the urban periphery, but in itself, there are villages that suffer from major problems of infrastructure, forming small peripheries within the periphery. With growth associated with the first cement factory in Bazil, the Cia de Cimento Portland Perus, the neighborhood was the address of the arrival of thousands of migrants since the early decades of the twentieth century, in the beginning, they are from the state of São Paulo and Minas Gerais. However, even with the plant closure, the district continues to receive migrants from other regions like the Northeast and even residents of other neighborhoods in the city of Sao Paulo. Thus, this research aims to identify how the Pentecostal religious networks that exist in a multiplicity of denominations, are present in the process of acceptance and adaptation of migrants on their arrival in the neighborhood and to what extent the religious affiliation becomes important in this process of movement and travel population in urban space.
