This video records the Virtual Public Meeting of Lar de Frei Luiz, held on April 12, 2026. The institution, which has completed 60 years of existence, is dedicated to a threefold mission of assistance: children, the elderly, and charity.

Main points addressed:

Charitable Work:

Lar de Frei Luiz maintains a daycare center for children from 6 months to 4 years of age and also a socio-educational project in the after-school period for children and young people from 4 to 14 years old.

Doctrinal Study:

The meeting includes reflections based on the Gospel of Jesus, especially Matthew 25, on the importance of charity, as well as study and consultation of The Spirits’ Book, by Allan Kardec, focusing on the law of justice, love, and charity.

Main Lecture:

Guest speaker Dr. Paulo Resinski gives a lecture on his new book, Spirituality, Psychiatry, and Mental Health. He discusses the integration between science, especially psychiatry and psychoanalysis, and spirituality, emphasizing that health, according to the World Health Organization, should also include spiritual well-being, guided by values such as benevolence, indulgence, and forgiveness.

Projects and Outreach:

The meeting also presents the Fradinho Yearbook 2026, a project that preserves the legacy of the institution and tells the stories of assisted children through the work of “child reporters.”

The meeting concludes with prayers, and the spirituality of the house brings messages of comfort and encouragement for the continued study of Spiritist Doctrine.
