All Saints' Church, Santos

All Saints' Church, Santos

All Saints' Church was established in the port city of Santos, in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, in April 1917, as a chaplaincy of the Church of England, where its main function was to assist both the British community resident there and sailors of all nationalities who passed through the port.

In 1955, after the end of the Second World War and with the arrival of the new world socio-economic order, the Church of England handed over its chaplaincies in Brazil to the Brazilian District Missionary of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America.

In 1965, the Brazilian mission became independent of the American church, appearing as the Anglican Episcopal Church of Brazil, of which All Saints' parish is an integral part.
