Pastor Cristiane Peixoto

Restoration Center Ministry Leader
Estancia Paraiso
Ministry of Restoring Lives
Lagoinha Baptist Church

Pastor Cristiane, a prophet and seer from the nation of Brazil has worked with inner healing and deliverance for more than 20 years. 

After experiencing death in childhood and during one of her pregnancies and having faced death in her other pregnancies, Pastor Cristiane has learned spiritual warfare, about the supernatural and the delivering power of God.

As an atheist, university student, Cristiane’s life was turned upside down when she had a supernatural encounter in which she was awakened by the audible voice of God calling her name.  At this moment, God began to talk to her about the ministry He had for her and His purpose for her life.

Soon after, Cristiane began ministering to the poor, the homeless and doing evangelism on the streets where she began to gain experience in the area of deliverance.

After marrying Pastor Joel Peixoto, Cristiane joined her husband in Salvador, Brazil co-pastoring with him for 8 years and working in the area of inner healing, deliverance and helping restore lives.

After beginning a family, God called the Peixotos to Belo Horizonte, Brazil where they served as pastors for 9 years at Estancia Paraiso, a ministry of Restoring Lives under Lagoinha Baptist Church—one of the largest mega churches in all of Brazil. 

Estancia Paraiso, well-known for its counseling and deliverance ministry, ministers to tens of thousands of broken and hurting leaders who fly in from around the world for their program. Approximately 7,000 people come each year to be ministered to, and 70% of them are leaders in the secular arena as well as ministers of the gospel.  

With her strong revelatory teaching gift, Cristiane was put in charge of teaching lectures on forgiveness, Christian character and freedom from sexual perversion, etc. Pastor Cristiane, along with her husband, also ministered healing and deliverance to hundreds of pastors and leaders shattered by tragedy and disappointment, in the process of helping to restore them.

 Currently, Pastor Cristiane is the director of the Restoration Center at Christ For the Nations, where she ministers inner healing and deliverance to hundreds of students, families, pastors and leaders, helping to bring restoration. 

She also serves as a faculty member at CFNI and teaches “Discovering and Healing Dysfunctional Families and Systems,” as well as “Inner Healing, Deliverance & the Prophetic.” 

Studying at three universities, Pastor Cristiane, majored in history, philosophy, and education earning her B.A., and she is completing her Masters in Clinical Counseling at Florida Christian University. A CFNI alumna, Cristiane Peixoto is credentialed with both the CFN Network and with Generals International, through Cindy Jacobs.

Pastor Cristiane travels and ministers at conferences with her husband, in addition to advising leaders and ministers from around the world. 

Pastor Joel and Pastor Cristiane have four beautiful children and currently reside in Dallas, Texas.
