A chat with Lacy Bertoja,
from Gramado city

"Our existences are like links in the same chain" is the title of our editorial in which it is shown that in the succession of corporeal existences friends and family are reunited in the same plane in which develop their new tasks. 

"True charity only with a lot of love to the neighbor." This phrase was said by our interviewed Lacy Bertoluci Bertoja, founder of Hope Spirit Society of Gramado (RS). In the interview, which is one of the highlights of this edition, she tells us about the successful "Current good", a campaign carried out by the spirits of her city. 

Marcelo Teixeira, Petrópolis (RJ), is the author of the Special "Humility is fertile". In the article the author says that it is necessary to review the concept we have about humility, mistakenly interpreted as lowering the head, be simple, wear threadbare clothes and the like. "To be humble is not like that," he says. The Special is one of the highlights of the issue. 

It was held in Recife (PE) the 10º SIMESPE - Symposium and Spirits Studies Practices of Pernambuco, which presented on the opening night a lecture given by Divaldo Franco before an audience of 2,600 people, as it is shown in the report made by the confrere Aguinaldo Melo, which is also one of the highlights of this edition.
