More DescriptionThis volume reveals the lives and traditional healing practices of two dedicated, humble spiritual leaders from Brazil—Joao Fernandes de Carvalho and Otavia Pimental. Joao, known for his ability to write medical prescriptions while in a deep state of prayer, has healed thousands of people who have come to his house for treatment.
