Tax deductible
Irmandade: 

Our friend and brother Luis Fernando, the voice of Padrinho Alfredo, and devoted son of Juramidam is in great need. He has recently been diagnosed with laryngeal cancer. He has already undergone extensive alternative treatments that has exhausted his personal finances, and now needs to have more serious medical treatments. In January he will begin radiation and chemotherapy at hospital in Curitiba. He does not have any form of health insurance and sadly, the Brazilian health care system will not pay for this treatment which is to go on for several months.


With the support of Padrinho Alfredo this campaign is reaching out to you all to please send prayers and a financial contribution for his treatment, for his care, and for his peace of mind – as the stress of the impending treatment is being further compounded by a great financial stress as well. However, we can help! Even a small donation adds up and will help us reach our goal.

Those who have had the opportunity to spend time with Luis are aware of his deep commitment to the Doutrina stretching from Ceu to Mapia to all over the world, which began some 35 years ago during the time of Padrinho Sebastiao. His tireless travels are a special commitment of faith and duty to the light of the spiritual practice called Santo Daime.

Please keep Luis Fernando in your prayers with the intention that his treatment will be successful. That he traverses his trials with a minimum of pain and discomfort. That the mantle of the Holy Spirit’s protection and the Celestial Mother’s watchful grace keeps him encircled with the love and support from his Juramidam Family.  Luis extends to all deep gratitude for your support and looks forward again to travel to see his friends across the globe.

Go Fund Me does not have direct banking relations with Brazil so funds collected on this platform will first be collected by the Church of the Virgin Mother in Maryland and will then be forwarded to Luis Fernando.  Your donation is tax deductible and you will receive a donation letter for your records. 

Muito obrigada for your support and prayers.
