Resum
The objective of the investigación is to analyze, from a social and psychological perspective, which is the representation of health that the Brazilian Pentecostalism community presents, through the study of the stories of converssion and cure. To this end, we developed a case study of this said Pentecostal community in a popular Brazilian neighbourhood. Historical and contextual aspects where taken under account, not only of the community but also of Pentecostalism itself as a religious movement which is expanding quicly in the Brazilian sociocultural scene. These personal histories of twenty adult subjects; all converted to this “New Religious Movement” reveals how the Pentecostal Religious experience reverberates in the construction of a concept of health.
