Itinerary
Day 1 - Saturday
Arrive in Brasilia International Airport (capital of Brazil): We do not make air travel arrangements; however, we recommend you travel with American Airlines or any other airline to match the following schedule:
AMERICAN AIRLINES
MIAMI TO BRASILIA
AA 213 MIAMI/BRASILIA 1159P 730A
BRASILIA TO MIAMI
AA 214 BRASILIA/MIAMI 1159P 446A
Upon arrival in Brasilia: You will be met at the airport. You will then gather your luggage, meet your driver outside the international arrival area and be transferred to Abadiania by van for a 1 ½ hour. Our van will depart Brasilia at 10:00am - if your arrival does not match group departure time to Abadiania, an extra and private arrangement will need to be made for your transportation to the Abadiania, please advance Vera in advance.
Check In: Settle in to our “home away from home”
Our accommodations in Abadiania are at Pousadas Irmao Sol Irma Lua & Namaste. We have reserved your stay at the most comfortable Pousada (Guest House) in town and they serve up the most delicious meals as well! The owner Martin is a translator for John of God, and brings an insider’s knowledge to our experience. All rooms are simple and the large garden and patio provide a relaxing surrounding area for meditation and introspection. The purpose of our retreat is for healing, and the whole town is very supportive and geared to our healing inner journey.
Included in the package are 3 meals a day: breakfast - 7:00 am, lunch - 12:00 pm and dinner - 6:00 pm.
CLICK HERE for more information on the Pousada.
1:00 pm: Lunch - Upon your arrival and check in, join our table for your first typical Brazilian meal.
2:00 pm: Group Gathering - At this time our group leader and official Casa guide, Vera Lopez, will go over all of the important details of our journey. We will officially introduce ourselves and share our intentions with our sacred circle. Years of experience has taught us that the power of a group yields a tremendous force in supporting our intentions. We will pray together and hold a space for each other during the next two weeks. You will come to find that a great portion of your healing will be taking place within our group. It will be within our sacred circle where we will begin to open our minds and hearts to the miracles we are about to receive. We then walk to the Casa, John of God spiritual center, for a complete tour of the facilities.
Free time to meditate at the Casa Gardens. Return to our Pousada.
6:00 pm: Dinner
After dinner we suggest you to take your time to settle into your room and retire early. Everyone will be adjusting to the time in Brazil, and Abadiania is a powerful vortex of light generated by the Casa.

It’s a day for fun and integration of the group.
If you are not interested in taking the optional tour to Pirenópolis or you are unable to go, we suggest you to take this day to rest and, if schedule in advance (please ask me how), you can go to the Casa and have a crystal bed treatment.

And if you are feeling hungry, you can try an Acai bowl (native fruit to Brazil) along with other healthy options at the town’s best café - Fruttis’s - including juices, desserts, cappuccino, tea and other treats.

Day 5 - Wednesday
6:00 am: Leave as a group and walk to the Casa for the morning session.
When the Casa is in session, it means that John of God is present and in Entity: his body has incorporated one of the Spirit Entities. So for those coming to Abadiania for the first time (meaning you have never had your picture presented to the Entities or gone through a long distance healing with John of God) you will enter the “First Time Line” and present your 3 intensions. For those returning, you will enter “Second Time Line”, Revision or Voluntary Intervention.
After you go through your designated line we will know what the next step is. In other words, we will know what the Entity prescribed for you as treatment. Treatments vary as follow: spiritual intervention, meditations in the current room, crystal bed sessions, purification at the local waterfall, herbs, and other related healing activities. There are strict rules and protocols at the Casa which make it run very smoothly. Everyone must follow the protocols. Vera will guide you every step of the way to help maximize your experience during these days.
Every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are session days. Morning session run from7:00 am to 12:00 noon, and from 1:00 to 5:00 pm (these are approximate times, as John of God continues to work until the last person has been seen). During these days, starting 9:00 am, the Casa serves the healing soup blessed by the Entities, so if you are at the Casa, please go to the kitchen area and have your bowl of blessed soup, it’s part of your healing while in Abadiania.
12:00 pm: Back at the Pousada for Lunch
6:00 pm: Dinner - followed by informal group gathering.
Days 6/7 Thursday and Friday
6:30 am: Breakfast
If you had Spiritual Intervention yesterday you will be still resting today, everyone else will return to the Casa for follow-up treatments such as meditations in the current room, crystal bed sessions or perhaps the Entities asked you to return today for Intervention. Again, Vera will guide you every step of the way to help maximize your experience during these days.
12:00 pm: Back at the Pousada for Lunch
6:00 pm: Dinner - followed by informal group gathering.
Friday: Every Friday around 4:30 pm groups gather around King Salon Hall and wait for the afternoon session to complete. John of God, even though tired after 3 long days of work, kindly join each group for a special group picture. Do not schedule crystal bed or any other activity if you want to be a part of our group picture with John of God.
Day 8/9/10/11 - Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday
Saturday:
If you had surgery on Friday, you will still be in quarantine on Saturday. Otherwise, these are free days and generally designed to assimilate the healing experiences, including visits to the near-by healing waterfall or to the Casa for crystal bed sessions. It’s very important to relax and allow these days to be a time for restoration, reflection, meditation, contemplation, and allowing Spirits to guide us through visioning, dreams and intuition.
The Casa gates are open every day from 7:00 am to 9:00 pm. You are free to walk around the Casa grounds during this time. The bookstore is open Monday to Friday from 8:00 am to 6 pm (7 am on session days) and Saturday to Sundays from 8:00 am to 12:00 noon.

Then from noon to 2 pm for those that are interested to go out for lunch, we will take the group to a typical and very nice restaurant at the entrance of the city (this is optional and it might cost you around U$20).
