THE MAN - KNOWN AS JOHN OF GOD - MEDIUM JOAO
Medium Joao's human splendor resides in his deep devotion to his God-given mission. With inexhaustible strength and endurance he has devoted his life to healing and has adapted his private life to fit in with this enormous task, something which wasn’t always easy. For years he travelled from village to village treating and healing people in all regions of Brazil. This changed when he settled in Abadiania and founded his healing center, known as the Casa de Dom Inacio. He has been called “the Miracle Man” because of the healing energy and work that comes through him. At the Casa de Dom Inácio literally the lame often begin to walk, the blind to see, the deaf to hear. Those with diseases like cancer, MS and AIDS often find healing, as do those suffering from depression and mental disorders.
Joao channels many beings of light or entities that do the healing work. He says, “I do not heal; God heals.” The Casa is accessible to people of any religion; no special beliefs are asked, except to hold the heart open to the possibility of healing.
Those who are well acquainted to Joao and his life know that even in the time reserved for his private life he takes upon himself other people’s worries and hardships, not only those of his very large family which comprises nine children and many grandchildren. Continually people come to him seeking help and advice. Also his healing work is not limited to the days he spends at Casa de Dom Inacio in Abadiania. Frequently he leaves the healing center on Friday evenings and flies to another region of Brazil where he spends his weekend treating thousands of people. In addition, he also periodically facilitates healing trips abroad.

A most Significant healer
The reason for John of God possibly being the most significant healer alive today could be that he humbly puts his work in God’s hands. Since the teenager Joao, more than 50 years ago, discovered his talent as a channel, he has devoted his life to spiritual healing. He has not allowed his ego to distract him from this divine mission, even when at the beginning – during the dictatorship in Brazil – his healing work was frequently met with rejection. He was persecuted, often beaten up or thrown into prison; his only crime being that he healed people. At the same rate as the number of cures increased, the number of opponents, who were envious of his success or were following other vested interests also grew. Joao, who was not a doctor and does not like the sight of blood, was again and again denounced for practicing medical treatments and reported to the police. But parallel to this, the number of people who were his admirers and patrons, some of them very influential, was also rising. Therefore, although his important healing mission was often threatened, it was never really in jeopardy. Precisely because among the numerous people who had been healed were many members of the legal profession, including some top county and state judges. Now Joao is an honored man in Brazil, having had the Brazilian national band playing to him the morning of his seventieth birthday at the Casa.
In the nineteen fifties, this healer, through whom the spirit Dr. Fritz also performed many bloody spiritual operations, was sentenced to prison for more than one year, even though his healing methods were very successful. In spite of a wave of sympathy in the Brazilian population, he actually had to begin serving this sentence. After a few months, however, the country’s president at that time, President Kubitschek, pardoned him, as his wife owed her life to the healer. John of God has in more than half a century treated eight million people, a sheer incredible number. The gratitude and appreciation which has grown out of this creates a powerful protective energy field which makes the continuation of his work possible. The one and only radical change in his work as a healer happened over 30 years ago: though the guidance of the great healer, and Joao’s patron, Chico Xavier, he settled in Abadiania in Central Brazil where he founded the Casa Dom Inacio de Loyola. Up until this time he had spent years of relentless travelling through the whole of Brazil. Then and today, Joao emphasises again and again that it is not himself who heals but God; he is only a channel for divine healing powers. His inner determination to serve and heal gives him the strength needed to, time and time again, go into a trance and to make his body available to the spiritual entities who work through him.

RECOGNITION IN THE WORLD
Fame and admiration have not changed Joao’s life – he is still the humble, loving person he has always been, staunch and untiring in his mission of healing. Many awards and letters of thanks can be found in the Casa – expressions of the outstanding significance of his work. A certificate from the Dalai Lama expressing thanks hangs decoratively on the wall in the Casa next to one from the second to last Peruvian President, who himself and whose son were cured by Joao.
In the last 52 years Joao has treated millions of people from all over the world, from practically every religion and culture on Earth – people who have come to him in search of healing. Among them were ‚normal’ people from all social classes, from all professions: Members of Parliament, government officials, even presidents, military personnel in high positions, judges, CEOs, entrepreneurs and freelancers, solicitors and doctors. Other professions such as scientists and professors, priests, bishops, nuns and dignitaries from all religions are represented and so are the socialites and celebrities from the world of sport, music and film. John of God dedicates himself to all of them, whether rich or poor, famous or unknown, with the same care and devotion.
There are a vast number of books about his life and work, which are being translated into more and more languages. Numerous reports and documentaries have appeared in the print press, and on the radio and TV channels on every continent.

About the Casa De Dom Inacio
Gardens of the Casa.
The Casa de Dom Inácio (the house of St Ignatius Loyola) is a spiritual healing center in Abadiânia, central Brazil. Medium Joao has worked here for over 30 years and has helped countless people achieve apparently miraculous healings – of cancer, AIDS, paraplegia, blindness and many other serious or seemingly “incurable” illnesses. In 1978, John of God, at the suggestion of Chico Xavier, moved his center to Abadiania, creating Casa de Dom Inácio. It is a beautiful setting overlooking the nearby expanse of hills and valleys centered on the largest crystal out cropping in the world, a natural energy vortex formed by quartz crystal bedrock beneath the surface.Casa de Dom Inácio is a sanctuary of love and healing. The physical layout is well designed to accommodate the hundreds each day who gather there. The buildings are painted blue and white as John of God was guided to do in a vision of St. Ignatius and are surrounded by tropical fruit trees and beautiful flower gardens. The main building is a large meeting hall with several large rooms attached where hundreds of people, coming from all over the world, sit in the healing current energies of the Spirit Entities, John of God and the Casa Mediums. John of God perform healings here, free of charge, every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
