The Swedish Baptist church arises in Brazil in 1912, in Guarani, a small countryside village in the south of Brazil. Today it is present in 752 places of worship in Brazil, the number of members is 58.319, according a recent statistic, and it is present in 11 countries.

It is a Pentecostal and ethnic church in a first moment, and for account of this ethnic characteristic, has grown slower than other Pentecostals churches founded in same period. Subsequently it reached other ethnicities which resided in the region, such as Russians, Germans and Brazilians, among others. In our historical approach we demonstrate facts that corroborate to the presence of the Pentecostal movement within this church and the relevance of the pastor of Philadelphia Church in Örebro, Sweden, John Ongman, founder of ÖM. We approach the relevance of Andrew Johnsson for the implantation of Pentecostalism in Sweden, and yet ÖM as a center for this movement, which is also responsible for the sending of several missionaries to many parts of the world, including Brazil, where it founded several churches and in 1919 organized the Convenção Evangélica Batista Sul Rio-Grandense (South Rio Grande Evangelical Baptist Convention). We draw a profile of the Swedish Baptist Church in its early endeavor in our territory. Therefore the Swedish Baptist Church has as its central characteristic Migration Pentecostalism, becoming the third entry of Pentecostalism in Brazil
