This work addresses the formation of Umbanda, and worship the deities in the city of Uberlândia in two stages: decades of decades of 1940/1950 and 1990 /2000. It is thus to study the yards from a movement created by the workers in the city of Uberlandia and as an expression of struggle, endurance, resistance and complicity in the face of dominant vectors in the city. It is seeking, through this work, to identify mechanisms of how the workers could, about a religion, to build experience and festivals, songs, colors, aromas, and thus spread through the city a significant amount of yards of worship of deities. Thus, we identified these practices a form of expression dealing with the city, expressed either as resistance and confrontation, or as acceptance and resignation by individuals practicing the cult of deities. It is, in short, to identify how and why many workers do, the terraces of faith, a significant space in which values, community, struggles, victories, defeats and a universe of feelings are experienced in every corner, in every flavor in each color.
