We are the Sardenberg family, a Brazilian missionary family serving with YWAM in Los Angeles. Since 2017, we have walked with Youth With A Mission as volunteers, and in 2024 we took a step of faith and moved from Brazil to the United States to follow God’s call. Our deepest desire is simple: to know God and make Him known.

Our ministry is centered on training, equipping, and discipling people who want to make Jesus known among the nations. In Los Angeles, we serve in areas such as supporting missionaries from different countries, encouraging youth, creative communication, worship and teaching in local churches, and helping with Bible translation support. We love seeing people grow in their relationship with God and discover their calling.

We believe missions is never a solo journey. It happens through prayer, friendship, and partnership. Every step we take in Los Angeles depends on the Lord’s grace and on people who choose to stand with us, believing that the Gospel still transforms lives in this city and beyond.

We need your prayer and financial support because we serve full-time in missions and do not receive a salary from YWAM.

As missionaries serving full-time in Los Angeles, we are trusting God to raise $4,000 per month to support the needs of our family. This monthly support helps cover essential living expenses such as housing, groceries, transportation, health expenses, communication, and other daily family needs in one of the most expensive cities in the United States.

Because YWAM missionaries do not receive a salary, every prayer and financial partnership allows our family to continue serving, discipling, and investing in ministry here in Los Angeles. Your support is not only helping sustain our family, but also empowering the work God is doing through us among people from many nations.
