Introduction / History

The Karuazu people are one of the Guarani groups, which includes a cluster of ethnic groups. They were always nomadic hunters and food gatherers. Their homeland is in Brazil’s Mato Grosso do Sul state.


What Are Their Lives Like?

The Karuazu have an intimate knowledge of their physical environment. They depend on the local plants and animals for their survival.

Their oral history preserves not only their language but their culture. It includes myths, stories and legends that are taught by one generation to the next.


What Are Their Beliefs?

The Karuazu people are animists who worship the spirits of the land. To them, the land and the spirit world are closely related. Shamans are important religious figures in their culture.


What Are Their Needs?

Pray for the Lord to intervene in their families, calling people to his side and blessing them in every way.
