Although the public elementary and high schools are free, they offer a poor quality of education.
Only 4% of these students make it into college. However, our mission partner Manoel Andrade,
and his vision of PRECE, are working miracles. Through his grass roots efforts which began 12
years ago, over 2000 students in Northeastern Brazil now have a real chance to pass the exams in
order to enter the university. Presently, over 150 PRECE students are enrolled in the university.

Where does RPC fit in? Our 2008 Faith In Action Offering supports a chaplain and programs for the
university students. Each year we send a mission team to help with construction and to interact with
the students and local churches. Individuals are to be a small team going to Brazil to consult with
start-up business plans for the students.
