This research seeks to understand aspects that permeate the field of Pentecostalism in Brazil and its intrinsic relations to the migration and formation of Brazilian urban peripheries in the second half of the 20th century, especially in São Paulo and the Metropolitan Region. The object of study is focused on young people from 18 to 29 years old from the Assembly of God Church São Bernardo do Campo Ministry in the DER slum in the city of São Bernardo do Campo. Located between the city center and Anchieta Highway, architecturally different from the rest of the nearby urban fabric, the favela is the oldest in ABC Paulista region. Through an ethnographic study, we seek to understand the sociability of young people, many of them black, poor and children of migrants, in peripheral spaces, socially marginalized and politically and geographically excluded in the urban landscape. Therefore, we intend to analyze how pentecostalism in these state-neglected places, stigmatized by the middle classes and harassed by various forms of violence, helps to build solid networks of mutual growth, with the intention of being a sociable alternative to reorder the meaning of life of these young people. In addition, we will investigate how the sociability of young pentecostal fits in and deviates from the introjected religious principles imposed by the religious institution in order to demonstrate the strength of youth as religious subjects who individually and at specific moments subvert or reaffirm the values and practices apprehended.
