ELAINE MENDES
Founder and Vision of Revival Chelsea
I was born in Governador Valadares, Brazil, the third of nine children. My passion for community work began at age 14 and led me to study education, child psychology, and theology.
Through a course in philanthropy, I traveled across South America, working with indigenous communities and learning new cultures and languages.
For the past 16 years, I’ve served as a pastor and community leader in Chelsea. I believe:
“We may not be able to change the world, but we can change lives.”
As president of Revival Chelsea, I lead programs that promote education, health, and social justice — always grounded in faith and compassion.
