The main
highlight of
this issue is
the interview
with the
Spiritist writer
Walter Oliveira
Alves to our
collaborator
Orson Peter
Carrara, in
which the
interviewee, who
is also the
director of IDE
– Institute of
Spiritist
Propagation,
from Araras
(SP), talks
about the
importance of
psycho-pedagogical
preparation for
evangelists and
Spiritist
activities in
general. The
interview, just
like previous
issues, is also
presented in
Spanish and
English.
Another
highlight of
this issue is
the article
written by José
Passini, from
Juiz de Fora
(MG), in which
the confrere
analyses the
content of the
book “The Four
Gospels”, by J.
B. Roustaing,
and points out
its differences
compared to
Spiritism. José
Passini, former
rector of the
Federal
University of
Juiz de Fora, is
member of the
Council of this
magazine.
In São Paulo
took place last
Sunday, May
25th, another
State Meeting of
Spiritist Book,
event promoted
by USE Estadual
of São Paulo.
Mariângela
Cazetta
tells how
the meeting
was.

This magazine,
which turned one
year old on
13/4/2008, has
been registering
over the last
weeks a sudden
increase in the
number of
visits,
downloads
and printings of
its pages.
As the number of
visits does not
mean anything
since the same
person can
access the site
many times in
the same week,
we call
attention to the
reader for other
items that are
accurate and
reveal the
actual number of
accesses.
According to the
numbers below,
we can see that
between January
and May of this
year the average
of downloads
has grown twice
as much and so
did the numbers
of printings:

Stimulated by
numbers like
this we try to
deliver each
week a better
and more useful
magazine for
those who read
it. It is the
case, for
example, of the
biographies on
our site, that
are now in
Spanish and
English, thanks
to the
spontaneous help
of two
collaborators:
Mercedes Cruz
Reyes, our dear
Merchita, from
Alcázar de San
Juan, Ciudad
Real (Spain),
and Cristiane
Parmiter, young
Brazilian now
living in London
(UK).
