Abstract

The purpose of this work is not to make a detailed description of popular regigiosity, but to go through the meanders of this tradition, highlighting the displacement practives, devotion and promises. The chosen city is Canindé, located in the cearense semiarid, a place of fervent devotion to Saint Francis of Assisi. The pilgrimage é meeting place with God and with others, gestures of solidarity are being built, spaces for socializations and exchange of experiences with the living are formed. We make use of bibliographical reasearch, field diary, ethnography and participative observation, using an attempt to understand social phenomena with the support of an investigation closer to meanings and human behaviors. Among the results are the pilgrims who are eternal debtors of grace; faith linked in displacement; promises for themselves and others; Sacredness of the party and religiosity linked to merit logic.
