The influence of Rede
Globo’s soap operas
It is not possible to
precisely measure if the
spiritist soup operas, such
as “Escrito nas Estrelas”
(Written on the Stars),
broadcasted by Rede Globo TV
channel, influence people to
seek for more information
about the Spiritist
Doctrine. However, this
influence exists and it is
the theme of this week’s
editorial entitled “The
spiritist soap operas and
its influence”.
One of the highlights of
this week is the interview
conceded by the confrere
Neusa Maria Lodi Ugattis,
from Santa Rita do Passo
Quatro (SP), to our
colleague Wellington Balbo.
During the interview Neusa
speaks about the social work
and dissemination of the
spiritist doctrine conducted
by the Spiritist Centre
Love and Charity, which
carries off work promoting
human development and
doctrinaire dissemination in
their town.
Another highlight of this
issue is the conclusion of
the special from Paulo Neto
about the spiritist
phenomena. In this article,
which the first part has
been publishes last week,
the confrere reminds us
that mediumship is not
restricted to psychographics
and that the Bible gives us
evidence of the mediumnistic
phenomena, if we study it
carefully.
On September 12th, it was
held in Amsterdam the 9th
National Spiritist Meeting
of the Netherlands, which
had the participation of
Carlos Campetti, as shown in
the article written by
Claudia Werdine, which is
also one of the highlights
of this edition.

Some readers are not aware
of the search tool which is
available in our webpage.
Here is a short explanation
of how to use it.
The following tool can be
found on the top of each
page:
When you enter a certain
word, as for example
abortion, and click on
"Search", the magazine
immediately informs all
issues in which that word
appears. It searches in
various sections such as
interview, specials or
published articles.
We believe that this tool,
given the dynamism of the
information provided on the
Web, is the best way to
obtain the information we
seek, since every following
week the index becomes
obsolete. With the above
mentioned search mentioned,
it is much easier to find
what we are looking for.
