Felipe and Miriam Graciano are missionaries with Shores of Grace Ministries in Recife, Brasil, working in the prevention of abuse, abandonment, and prostitution, as well as the rescue, restoration, and redemption of individuals and families who have been affected by such horrors.
Both Felipe and Miriam have been involved in and influenced by Missions, Ministry and worship for most of their lives. At the age of 6, Miriam moved with her family from Australia to Mozambique, Africa where she was raised in a vibrant and active missions environment. Felipe spent his teen years serving in the worship band at his home church in Brazil and leading youth mission trips around the country; later being led by the Lord to get his Bachelors in Music Performance and Production.
Miriam and Felipe met each other in São Paulo, Brazil when Miriam went there on a short term mission trip along with her family. She ended up moving to Brazil where they got married and started to build their life together.
The Gracianos spent the first few years of their marriage serving in ministry at their local church and volunteering as Staff at The Iris Global School of Missions where they gained experience in leading outreach teams around the world, multicultural interaction, training up new leaders and missionaries, and developing a passion for discipleship and the building of character.
Today, the Gracianos are based in Recife, Brazil and serving full time at Shores of Grace Ministries.
Their hearts desire is to see a new generation of disciples of Jesus being raised up. They have a passion for the transformation of youth and teens through building an intimate relationship with their creator.
