ABSTRACT: "The beliefs and healing and prophecy rituals of the New Orleans black Spiritual churches are similar to those of Spiritualism, a largely white movement, and Espiritismo and Santeria among Hispanics. Whereas researchers have criticized or ignored the Spritual churches' therapeutic efforts, they have often described the others as beneficial. This article compares the religions and suggests that the therapy provided by the Spiritual churches be re-examined."
