Summary:ABSTRACT: This article provides elements to understand the reasons why a group of adults decide to migrate from the Catholic Church to a Pentecostal Church. The individuals experience this migration as an expression of their personal freedom and as emancipation from their ancestors’ tradition. Using the ethnographic approach, we studied the cults and the context outside the church in which the subjects interact; this allowed us to observe that in the Pentecostal Church, people receive social recognition, cognitive and moral orientation, strong emotional stimulus, and insertion in the modern logic of progress. In these processes a tension is evident between individualization and colectivization, or between individual freedom and submission to a community, an unresolved dialectic which is also a main feature of modernity.
