Comunidade Católica Shalom

The Shalom Catholic Community is an International Private Association of Faithful within the Catholic Church, founded on July 9, 1982, in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil, by Moysés Azevedo. Affiliated with the Catholic Charismatic Renewal, its charism is the experience of "peace", understood as reconciliation with God, oneself, and others through an encounter with the Risen Jesus Christ, characterized by creative courage, hospitality, and missionary zeal. Recognized by the Holy See in 2007, it operates in over 160 dioceses across more than 40 countries, with its headquarters at the Diaconia Geral in Aquiraz, Ceará.
