No matter how tiny it is
And follow your growth,
So that you know of how many lives
A tree is made"

- Dona Hermínia, how was your first contact with the spiritist doctrine?
- Well, I was a Roman Apostolic Catholic and I didn't believe in anything else except what the Church preached and taught. There I met Dr. Leocádio José Correa, doctor, spirit of light, in Curitiba, who started teaching the course for Apprentices of the Gospel. I became interested, and little by little I got to know the Doctrine and increasingly being involved by it. That was in 1966 or so. Thank God, I was already a little evolved and I was able to perceive the depth and depth of that Doctrine that was being presented to me.
- How and when was the house founded?
- Our house was founded in 1988 at the request of Brother Alberto to help people who were looking for them. It was in Jabaquara and it started with Eudosia, Sr. Oswaldo and me. The beginning was very difficult, but today we have a good team.
- Tell us about a remarkable experience.
- It is not exactly an experience, but what I would like to say to young people: that they have faith and that they are more meek, that they look at spiritual values with more commitment, that they have more respect for their elders.
- A book.
- The Spirits' Book, The Gospel. That's where we find the solution to all pain.
- What are your activities at home?
- I take care of the layettes for the newborns, help with mediumistic classes, give passes, and also take the broom.
- Position in the GSIA.
- I'm Chairman of the Board.
- Place and date of birth.
