María Teresa de Almeida

Program Director, África & Portugal

Joined the Alfalit team: 2006
Born: Angola, Africa

In 1975, amidst a protracted civil war, Teresa and her family sought refuge in Portugal, leaving their possessions and assets behind. Teresa dedicated 14 years of service at Mount Hope Bible School and another 12 years at Abundant Life Christian Center, where she became acquainted with Alfalit, serving as the Center’s liaison. Additionally, for two decades, Teresa demonstrated her linguistic prowess as a translator and interpreter for distinguished speakers from Europe, Australia, and the USA. Grounded in her parents’ legacy, Teresa’s paramount aspiration is to selflessly aid others in fulfilling their potential according to God’s purpose for their lives.
