Leandro and Lais united their lives with the purpose of serving God and others. From this blessed marriage of 20 years, three daughters were born: Anna Zoe, Rebeca, and Ester, who walk alongside them and enrich their daily missionary journey.

For seven years, the family lived and served in Albania, where the main focus was strengthening the local church. They dedicated themselves intensely to working with children and adolescents, planting seeds of faith in the younger generations and training new leaders.

Understanding a new calling, they began a new chapter as missionaries in Portugal through MV. Their commitment remains steadfast: to cooperate for the growth and consolidation of the Portuguese church, focusing their efforts on providing direct support to local communities, prioritizing practical discipleship and the theological and ministerial training of new leaders for the advancement of the Gospel.
