Pastor Evelyn Joshua, leader of The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN), recently concluded a charity outreach in Brazil, specifically in the Colinas do Oeste community of Osasco, a major urban center in the São Paulo metropolitan region. The outreach, which took place on September 21, 2026, was part of SCOAN's commitment to providing practical expressions of Christian love to communities in need. During the outreach, Pastor Joshua and the Emmanuel TV team distributed food items, clothing, toiletries, and a cash donation of R$50,000 to the community.
The choice of Colinas do Oeste in Osasco for the outreach was significant, given the municipality's economic strength, with a population of 728,615 and a per-capita Gross Domestic Product of R$163,878.12 in 2023. However, despite its economic prosperity, Osasco faces significant social vulnerabilities, with 262,875 people, representing 36.08 percent of the population, registered in the federal Cadastro Único database. This database is used to identify low-income families and facilitate access to social programs.
A 2025 study by the Osasco municipal government's Department of Social Assistance found significant concentrations of poverty and other vulnerabilities across the municipality. The study aimed to guide public interventions in areas with greater concentrations of poverty. It was against this backdrop that Pastor Evelyn Joshua and the Emmanuel TV team directed their charity outreach to the Colinas do Oeste community, providing practical assistance to those in need.
During the outreach, Pastor Evelyn Joshua reiterated SCOAN's commitment to reaching out to the needy, describing the humanitarian gesture as part of a legacy instituted by the church's late founder, Prophet T.B. Joshua. She expressed her love for the community and prayed for God's continued blessings upon them. The R$50,000 cash donation was received on behalf of the community by Roberto, a community leader who has played a significant role in building homes for thousands of families and supporting those in need.
Members of the Colinas do Oeste community expressed delight and gratitude for the charity outreach, describing it as a moment of immense joy. They appreciated the visit from Pastor Evelyn Joshua and the Emmanuel TV team, saying it demonstrated that the community had not been forgotten. The outreach underscored SCOAN's commitment to changing lives around the world and extending its humanitarian activities beyond the walls of the church.
The charity outreach also highlighted the importance of expressing Christian faith through compassion and practical assistance to vulnerable communities. SCOAN's ministry emphasizes that faith should be demonstrated not only through preaching but also through tangible actions. The outreach in Osasco is a testament to this commitment, as Pastor Joshua and the Emmanuel TV team brought hope and relief to those in need.
The visit to Colinas do Oeste community was a significant event for the residents, who appreciated the gesture of care and solidarity from SCOAN. The community leaders and residents alike expressed their gratitude for the aid and support provided, saying it would go a long way in improving their lives.
