HISTORY OF THE FOUNDATION OF HOUSE OF UMBANDA FATHER JESUÍNO - GC FRATERNITY FATHER PEDRO
House of Umbanda Father Jesuíno began its work on March 17, 2018, thanks to the efforts of several Brazilian mediums in the State of Queensland. Such an initiative would not have worked without the indescribable effort and dedication of Fábio Verch, Facilitator of the House of Umbanda Father Pedro in Perth,
who accepted the challenge of crossing more than 4,300 kilometers to start a difficult project and have under his care, responsibility and guidance over 21 mediums from different parts of Brazil. Fortunately, Fábio was lucky enough to meet Jandira Oliveira, who accepted the task of being the CUPJ facilitator and coordinating all the work of the House and ensuring the development and progress of each of the mediums. During the period of 1 year, Jandira directed the work of the House with the faithful and loyal support of Fábio, who traveled several times to help mediums in their mediumistic development, through practice and much theoretical study. Jandira is almost 70 years old and has a jovial and welcoming spirit, but the responsibility and wisdom that the high position of Spiritual Facilitator demands. Jandira has participated in Umbanda since her early childhood, playing in the corridors of her father's Center, in Porto Alegre/RS-Brazil. Each of the 21 mediums that were part of the mediumistic in the beginning, dedicated themselves to the extreme, with great zeal, love and dedication, to ensure that the CUPJ was formed, founded and established to be a cozy home for those who need help. Today, CUPJ opens its doors to the public with the sole and exclusive purpose of being a non-profit Religious, Holistic and Universalist Center, whose foundation is to practice the cult of Orixás through the doctrine of Umbanda, preserve nature and practice the charity, encouraging its mediums and consultants to self-knowledge. In addition to being the House of Orixás, Guides and Entities, CUPJ will be a welcoming home for all who wish to nourish themselves. Here we have space for everyone and we do not look at creed, color, race, religion, sexual orientation, social status or any other limiting factor that might differentiate or distance us from our brothers and sisters. Here, our motto is Love, Peace and Unity and these are the only things we are able to multiply here. Gratitude for being here sharing your energy with us. Fraternally,
