Dinalva Pimenta-Founder and President
For over 38 years, Dinalva has been working in children’s and women’s ministries helping people develop a stronger relationship with God by trusting Him, regardless of circumstances. She has a BA in Pedagogy from Universidade de Guarulhos and is the author of Don’t Be Afraid—See the Signs of His Grace (2014). Don’t Be Afraid is an inspirational book in which Dinalva invites people to trust God and bask in His marvelous creation.

In fact, Pepper Fields International was born out of their belief that a healthy relationship with God, family, and community lead to better, happier lives—that is what she wants for every child. In her spare time, Dinalva enjoys being outdoors, taking pictures, and doing crafts.
