This following is a report from Philip and Sari Shorey, the leaders of one of Steiger's international ministries - "The Suitcase Sideshow" - an evangelistic traveling marionette production:

In early 2011, I was sharing at "Projeto 242" - the Steiger church in São Paulo.

In the early 1980s, "Steiger" started as a bible study on a red barge behind Central Station in Amsterdam. From there, Steiger's ministry "No Longer Music" served as a catalyst for a movement of people and ministries passionate about reaching the lost. Today, Steiger has grown and developed into a true mission organisation dedicated to reaching and discipling the "secularised global youth culture" for Jesus, with 50 missionaries and ministry bases all over the world.

Prisons in São Paulo, Brazil are controlled by a powerful criminal gang called the PCC or First Capital Command. Prison guards never enter the prison except when they conduct surprise raids to look for contraband. Because the gangs run the prison you need their permission and protection to go inside.
