Who We Are
We are Andressa and Nilberto, a Brazilian-American family of four, currently based in South Carolina. We have been married for over a decade and are raising our two children, Luiza (11) and Benjamin (7), with a strong foundation in faith, service, and community.
Our background includes missionary training with Youth With A Mission (YWAM), where we completed our Discipleship Training School (DTS) and served full-time in ministry.
What We Do
Through our project, Jesus, Maps & Miles, we partner with churches and communities across the United States to provide engaging, family-centered ministry and outreach support.
Starting in August 2026, we will be traveling full-time in a motorhome, serving wherever there is a need.
We help churches:
- Engage children and families through creative ministry
- Support community outreach events
- Create meaningful, faith-based experiences
- Strengthen connection within local communities
How We Serve
We offer a variety of structured and flexible activities, including:
- Christian theater and creative performances
- Dance and Hip-Hop classes for youth
- Zumba and movement-based community activities
- Children’s entertainment (mascot, face painting, balloon art)
- Event support for churches and community gatherings
Our goal is to meet people where they are, using creativity and joy as tools to share faith and build relationships.
Our Mission
Our mission is simple and intentional:
- Share the message of Jesus
- Serve churches with excellence
- Strengthen families and communities
- Disciple our children through real-life ministry
Our Journey
While we have an initial travel route, we remain flexible and available to go wherever we are invited and needed.
As a family, we will:
- Homeschool our children on the road
- Serve together in ministry
- Document and share our journey to inspire others
How We Are Funded
Our mission is supported through a combination of our personal online business and partnerships.
Andressa works with digital marketing and affiliate promotions through platforms like Amazon and Walmart, which provides a source of income that helps fund our travels and ministry.
This allows us to serve churches and communities with flexibility, without placing financial pressure on the organizations we visit.
