Biography

Eliana Ribeiro is a Brazilian singer, missionary, and presenter, known for her work in Catholic music.

Born in Vitória, Espírito Santo, on February 13, 1977, Eliana had a adolescence marked by rebellion, involving herself with drugs, alcohol, and depression. Her transformation occurred in 1993, after an encounter with God, which led her to discover her religious vocation in 1997. In 1999, she joined the Canção Nova Community, where she became a music minister and evangelizer, interrupting her studies in Chemistry Education at the Federal University of Espírito Santo to follow her calling. Her trajectory in Catholic music officially began in 2002 with the release of her first CD, "Tempo de Colheita".

Throughout her career, Eliana has released several successful albums, such as "Espera no Senhor" (2006), "Ao Mestre do Canto" (2009), and "Saudade de Ti" (2013), which have brought messages of faith, hope, and transformation to thousands of people. In addition to her musical career, she also works as a preacher, a presenter for Canção Nova radio and TV programs, and ministers at retreats and religious events throughout Brazil and abroad. Her music and life testimony inspire many the faithful, consolidating her as one of the most important voices in contemporary Brazilian religious music. She is married to Fábio Roniel and has two children, Daniel and Helena.
