One of the highlights of this current issue is the interview delivered to the editor Wellington Balbo by our confrere Christina Nunes, correspondent of this magazine in Rio de Janeiro.

Born in Rio de Janeiro to Spiritist parents, Christina has a degree on Portuguese and Literature and professionally works at TRF in her hometown. In the Spiritist scene she works as a psychographer, writing many Spiritist books, all of them inspired by her spiritual mentor Caio Fabio Quinto. In the interview, she talks about her books and about current topics, such as abortion and violence.

José Passini, from Juiz de Fora (MG), writes about the Shroud of Turin, the linen cloth which, according to some sectors of the Catholic Church, would have covered Jesus after his crucifixion. The question of its authenticity is discussed in the text.

At the end of July, in the headquarters of the Brazilian Spiritist Federation, in the Federal District, took place another National Meeting of Coordinators of the Systematized Study of the Spiritist Doctrine, in which confreres from many states took part, as it is shown, in a special story, our collaborator and editor Antonio Augusto do Nascimento.
