Sow Marília Project´s coordinator speaks to the magazine


The NGO Sow Marília Project (Projeto Semear Marília) emerged in July 2011 with the purpose of offering opportunities for personal growth to children and adolescents in vulnerable situations. Breno Ortiz Tavares Costa, author of several books and general coordinator of the project, tells us about the origin and activities carried out by the institution, which currently serves around 150 children and adolescents aged 6 to 17. The interview is one of the highlights of this edition.

Another highlight is the special “Spirit dissemination: are we fulfilling this task?”, By our collaborator Anselmo Ferreira Vasconcelos. In the article, he quotes a text written by the confrere Wellington Balbo on the same theme, to emphasize the importance of spreading Spirit teachings even more widely, with a view, above all, to the public that has not yet known exactly what Spiritism is.

When it comes to spirit dissemination, one name that no one forgets is Léon Denis, who disincarnated on a day like today - April 12 - 93 years ago, that is, in 1927. He was born in Foug, France, Denis went, alongside by Gabriel Delanne and Camille Flammarion, one of the main continuators of the work initiated by Allan Kardec and author of classics like In the InvisibleAfter DeathChristianity and Spiritism and The Problem of Being, Destiny and Pain, among others.
