The present research shows that there is an interaction process between religion and sorcery in Pentecostal churches recently founded in Brazil. This study was based on antropological perspectives by James George Frazer and Emile Durkheim, in which, both dealt with sorcery and religion as distinct practices. However, it was Marcel Mauss, followed by other theoreticals, who admitted a possible interaction. The present religious entities perform rituals where religion and sorcery are blended, and as mentioned before Antropology has treated these two things as being distinct. Bibliography analisys of the theme was used as methodology; participative observation of the service, as well as TV and radio programmes of Apostololica Plenitude do Trono de Deus Church, founded in 2006 by Agenor Duque and his wife Ingrid Duque.
