Before dawn breaks over Brazil, evangelical bishop Bruno Leonardo uploads a video to YouTube, where he preaches and prays for his followers. Within hours, the video gathers half a million views and hundreds of thousands of comments. These numbers highlight the immense influence of the evangelical community in Brazil, a country where faith plays a central role in daily life. In his video, Leonardo encourages his followers not to lose faith in themselves and to overcome feelings of anxiety, sadness, and depression. He films from his home, wearing a banana cut—a symbolic gesture in some Christian traditions—and uses a neutral background. With 76 million subscribers, his YouTube channel is the most followed by any evangelical figure in Brazil. Before ending his video, Leonardo invites his followers to visit his Instagram account. There, they can see him participating in a recent food distribution event that provided for 3,000 families in a city in the state of Bahia, which is part of one of Brazil’s poorest regions. He also announces an upcoming in-person meeting in the state of Fortaleza, a city that has become a focal point for political engagement and community outreach. In other parts of Latin America, similar religious and cultural dynamics are unfolding. In Argentina, President Javier Milei has invited evangelical pastors to pray at the presidential palace, signaling a growing alignment between certain political leaders and religious groups. In Portugal, the radical right is gaining momentum through its appeal to "conservative women," positioning itself as a new cultural force. Meanwhile, in Rio de Janeiro, an esoteric organization has been called upon to help combat bad weather, reflecting the diverse and sometimes unconventional ways people seek guidance and support. The information about these developments comes from El Universal, the largest Spanish-language newspaper based in Mexico City. The paper aims to be a global news source and covers events across Latin America and the United States. Its reporting relies on a network of correspondents stationed in nearly every Latin American country, ensuring a broad and detailed coverage of regional news.
