SOLAR WELNESS CENTER – STAGE 1

 

STAGE 1: 1984 to 1986 – Pavão-Pavãozinho Residents Association, and a flat stone in the front.

 

 

Volunteer medical professionals:

 

The Association gave us the space and service continued on Sundays, when the first families left. The need for medical care, nursing and material assistance were huge.

Yolanda founded Lar Paulo de Tarso – Spiritualist Institution for Studies and Social Welfare on 03/05/1985 at her mother residence, Brigida Lopes Accención Navarro Maltarolli, in Ipanema. The goal was to give financial, volunteering and spiritual support for this work, whose patron is Apostle Paul.

With events organized by Lar Paulo de Tarso (LPT) and its volunteers, Yolanda bought a “small place” with 2 floors with no roof and walls falling at Pavãozinho Avenue, 51; built in three years and a half a small building with 4 floors. Each floor built was used to care services. (See Stage 2)             

 

Medical care in STAGE 1

2 – First Aid – wounds, sprains and pains healing.

 SOLAR WELNESS CENTER – STAGE 2

STAGE 2: from 1987 to 2001 – Medical Clinic Creation – Pavãozinho Avenue building, 51: “Lar Paulo de Tarso – Community Space”

 

Biopsychic health actions and social welfare remain connected.

In 1987, there was the small building opening, the first operating unit belonging to the institution for community families assistance. After each built floor, we transferred assistance work and enlarged it, leaving the residents association. In a short time, the local was used every day. And on Saturdays, it begins to happen Gospel study in an organized way, for those who wish.

This construction was only possible thanks to an engineer (Dr.Lélio) voluntary work, that took care of all the work, and because the material was achieved by financial resources from lunches, dinners, bazaars, classical music concerts and donations from Lar Paulo de Tarso goers.

People came spontaneously, from Cantagalo and Pavão-Pavãozinho, which characterized the work as a democratic space. At that time, this two communities were separated, and population of one was forbidden to attend the other one. There have never been conflicts, no one was warned or molested.

Soon, assisted number was 250 children and adolescents and 80 mothers.
