Both Brazil and Mexico are predominantly catholic countries. You can find catholic churches in almost all neighborhoods. But what if you're not catholic?
No problem! Like in most big cities it seems like every religion is represented in Sao Paulo and Mexico City. There are synagogues and kabballah centers in both cities. There are episcopalian, anglican churches there as well. Some of them offer service in english. There are also greek orthodox, adventist of the 7th day, Jesus Christ of the Latter Days churches in both cities. There are also local evangelical churches. There's a Scandinavian church. Buddhist temples. Hindu temples. Mosques. And much more. I am sure you will be able to find a temple of your religion.
So it seems like no matter what your religion is you will be able to find a place to go to. We're not a religious family but we did take a family trip to the Nossa Senhora do Brasil church in Sao Paulo and to the Virgem de Guadalupe church in Mexico City. Both are beautiful churches and you can't help feel peace as you walk in. It is totally worth a visit. The newcomers club will likely be able to help you find your house of prayers. And God bless us all.
