We are
masters of our own destiny
The phrase above is written
by Maria de Lurdes Duarte,
from Arouca, Portugal. It is
part of this edition's
special feature in which she
invites us to make serious
resolutions for this year
with the firm intention of
actually putting them into
practice. Quoting André
Luiz's phrase, in chap. 27
of the book Spiritist
Opinion (Opinião
Espírita), psychographed by
mediums Chico Xavier and
Waldo Vieira: “Apart from
yourself, no one decides
your destiny”, it also
reminds us that time is
urgent and the time is to
sow.
Electrical engineer, systems
analyst and, currently,
project engineer at the
Poupatempo Program, in the
state of São Paulo, Paulo
Malerbi is our interviewee.
Linked to FEESP – Spiritist
Federation of the State of
São Paulo and Seara Bendita,
both located in the capital
of São Paulo, he is the
author of a book that
portrays the life and work
of 25 women who stood out in
their work for good, the
main subject of the
interview.
The 26th State Spiritist
Conference will take place
from March 8th to 10th at
Centro de Eventos Positivo,
in Curitiba (PR), an event
promoted by the Spiritist
Federation of Paraná that
focuses this year on the
theme The Gospel
according to Spiritism – 160
years Illuminating paths,
Awakening consciences.
The opening will be on the
8th (Friday), at 7:30 pm,
with a conference given by
Divaldo Franco.
