Everaldo Pereira

Everaldo Pereira's achievements are not measured in trophies but in the political and religious impact he has had. He led the Social Christian Party during a period of significant growth, transforming it into a vehicle for evangelical representation. His 2014 presidential run, though unsuccessful, marked a milestone for evangelical participation in Brazilian politics. Most notably, his baptism of Jair Bolsonaro in Israel created a symbolic link that resonated deeply within the evangelical community. While he may not have won elections or awards, his behind-the-scenes influence has shaped the trajectory of conservative politics in Brazil.
