This dissertation studies the dynamics between religion, urbanization, migration and urban sprawl in the Igreja Mundial do Poder de Deus in Vila Alpina, a neighborhood in the city of São Paulo. The Brazilian urbanization process that began in the 1930s profoundly changed society, especially in the southeastern region of the country. Urbanization encouraged another important Brazilian phenomenon, migration flows, which collided to create in large cities centers of segregation, exclusion and social anomie. The present study analyzes which aspects of the Igreja Mundial do Poder de Deus em Vila Alpina exerts an emancipatory role on the migrant population, reconstructing identities that were fragmented by constant migration and adaptation to new, and often, inadequate cultures. The social indicators of the Igreja Mundial do Poder de Deus are studied, obtained from the statistical field, and are also linked and compared to the data with the statistics collected by the city, district and neighborhood Censo 2010. From this dense analysis, ethnographic aspects of church services are observed in order to provide an study on the practices of the church, its message, as well as to describe the religious identity of its participants. Lastly, questionnaires, interviews, and field observation of dense ethnographic aspects of the supporters of the church are investigated to verify the existence of sociais networks embraced by the church, religious associations and the accumulation of symbolic capital, aimed at emancipation and restructuring of the migrant subject.
