Feeling connected with the Divine Presence, with Mother/Father God, is a strength that I experienced even at an early age. Being able to access that feeling and truthfully, lovingly communicate it for others is the essence of my Path, and thus, of my work.

As a child, this "connectedness" felt very natural to me. It simply felt as though there was no other way of living, and I learned to play within the beauty of it.

As I became a teenager, I began to see that this blessing was gifted me that I may offer it to others in service. My health was somewhat fragile as both a child and teenager, as I occasionally experienced serious asthma attacks, sometimes requiring hospitalization.

During the most severe bout, I was blessed with a "near-death experience," which amplified my natural ability to connect spiritually. While I was in the hospital that time, multiple complications arose and I had a cardiac arrest. While the doctors and medical personnel were devotedly working to revive me, I experienced what, fundamentally, many others have described as characteristic of near-death. ?I observed myself going through the repeated electric shocks as the doctors worked to bring me back. While part of me remained in the hospital room as an observant, another part of me flowed away, embracing the vast, inexpressible, glorious Love within which we are all cradled, a Love that was beyond human comprehension in its depth, radiance and breadth. ?Its Light was luminous, white gold and led me even more deeply into the embrace of Spirit.

As I communed with the Divine Presence, I felt as though I was talking with God, and I related my concerns about my life, my strength and my ability to do well what I was being called to do.

I was reassured that I had the strength and abilities necessary to do so and that I would be given the resources, partners and supporters I needed at the correct times. I was reassured that it was okay to go back into my body and that the glorious Love that I felt during this Blessed Communion would remain easily accessible for me if I nurtured it, informing my work that I may share this Oneness with others even more deeply than I had previously envisioned. I was 16 and turned 17 during my 5 days in a comatose state subsequent to reentry into my body. During the coma, Spirit purified and strengthened me further.

I have worked throughout my life to nurture, sustain, honor and embody this Gift as purely as I was able through my continued spiritual and personal transformation, as well as through study, meditation and journaling. I do not think of It as me, though it is, as well, the essence of who I am. I think of myself as a vehicle or channel for Its blessing. This is the Heart of my work.

Professional History
In 1995, I began sharing this ability professionally by developing a course on deepening spiritual alignment. Teaching continued to open, strengthen and refine me and remains a deep source of inspirational joy for me. In 1998, I was guided that it was time to also begin offering this Communion through healing, and I began studying and, eventually, offering Reiki, which is a form of energy healing. I also facilitate other sacred energies in my works. I experience my offerings in both healing and teaching as working with the healing and transformative power of Love.

I became a Reiki Master Teacher in 1999 both for my own personal growth and in order to share the beauty of Reiki with others. Teaching Reiki, humbles and inspires me deeply. Over that time, I also started and facilitated the Reiki Heart Connection, a support and service group for Reiki Practitioners.

Later that year, I felt guided that it was time to begin preparing to become an Interfaith Minister, founded in the beliefs of the ancient Essene brethren. I completed the ordination process in 2002. The extraordinary blessing of becoming ordained resonates powerfully with my Soul's Path, giving me more tools with which to offer Divine Communion.

I feel honored and delighted to share with you today and welcome you into an overview of my work.

The Work Itself And How It Can Bless You
As we begin, I'd like to address the subject of denomination as I know that spiritual terms and discussion connote different things for each individual. The works that I offer are non-denominational. We each have guides or beliefs that we feel greater kinship with than others, and certainly, I do as well. I have found the greatest kinship personally with the ancient Essene belief system. Two of the core precepts of this system are to lovingly and non-judgmentally honor the unique spiritual path of each individual, and secondly, to honor children, women, men and all of life equally. Thus, I am firmly committed to acknowledging and honoring the higher truths of all religious or personal affiliations. For this reason, I use various terms in addressing Great Spirit and spiritual concepts. If one term doesn't work for you, then change it in your own mind to the term that feels more resonant.

Communing with the Divine is fundamental to our abilities to create successful and fulfilling lives for ourselves. By consciously connecting with the Divine Presence, we feed our souls and give them greater strength in working with our beings and with Spirit to create more joyful and fulfilling lives. We have all experienced moments of Oneness in our lives; moments when we feel awed by nature and one with its beauty, power and grace, or moments when we have held a young child in our arms and we feel connected, blissful, grateful, awash with love. This is, in essence, Divine Communion. ?We are experiencing our innate and perpetual oneness with Mother/Father God and with all of life. At these times, whether we realize it consciously or not, we are strengthened, expanded and empowered in our paths. Our souls are fortified.

It is in this way that Spirit works through me. By allowing me to embody and facilitate Divine Communion, the profound healing and transformative powers of Unconditional Love may communicate through me in a focused, guidedmanner bringing about:

This dynamic flow of Unconditional Love feeds and fortifies one's inner core and Divine Nature and gives the soul increased power in expressing and creating one's life more resonantly. This provides a host of blessings that can joyously transform your world.

On subsequent pages, you will find more detailed descriptions of the various modalities through which Great Spirit works with me currently in this sense.

Please feel free to contact me if I may be of further assistance in deciding the modality that may be most beneficial for you at this present time.

Thank you for connecting today. I will be honored to work with you in creating the love rich life of your dreams!
