all Divine Expressions of the only Life there is, but we don’t all KNOW that. And so we are on this journey of Self discovery. As we let go of (or “die” to) one expression, we become a Higher Consciousness of the One Life. We ALL make it . . . . . we ALL get our wings. And even after the physical experience of what we call “death”, Life goes on. We continue to live on a higher, finer dimension and our consciousness continues to unfold.

Rev. Dr. Thelma Smith has been on a “Light” journey her whole life (as we all are), but she felt like she was seeking in the bottoms of the murky ponds. Until, in her late 40s, she happened to look UP! She glimpsed her brilliant light in a Religious Science Church service in Fairfax, Virginia. She began her climb up to that light on a strong stalk called Religious Science/Science of Mind, and from that moment on, she has continued in her journeys and earned her wings many times.  Thelma believes that life is all about following that “Inner Light” which appears to be outside ourselves, but in truth, could never be perceived if it weren’t already within us. She believes we are

Carol first learned the value of therapy dogs when she was given Jacko, a German Shepard, at age 1 1/2 after her father passed. Throughout her life she enjoyed training dogs that were eventually placed in situations as "helpers".  In January 2004 she experienced a life changing shift with the death of her beloved Golden Retriever, Sunni.  In her grief, Carol was spiraled through a series of events that led to her involvement in the world of dog kennels and professional breeding.  This exposure began to heal her grief and opened the doors to her passion of helping others with the assistance of Therapy Dogs.  Carol is now the owner of Aislinge Labradors, offering Therapy Dog services and superbly bred labrador puppies.  You can reach Carol at nvng1@aol.com and visit her website www.aislingelabradors.com

Suzette Faith Foster’s passion and life calling is Energy Medicine, the same medicine that saved her life! Energy Medicine is referred to as “…the medicine of the future” by Dr. Mehmet Oz.Suzette Faith Foster had the same injury as Christopher Reeve; they both broke their necks, were paralyzed from head to toe and their spinal cord injuries caused them to stop breathing. Thankfully, Christopher Reeve received immediate medical attention. Suzette’s EMT’s didn’t arrive for almost 20 minutes! Thankfully, what Suzette does have is the deep belief and understanding of the body's innate

healing potential, and here on November 3rd, 2005, Suzette got an opportunity to walk her talk. Suzette's neurosurgeon, Dr. Isaac's, Director of Spine Surgery at Duke University Medical Center, in Durham, NC, told her that “most people with your injury are dead at the scene because they stop breathing; the remaining few are quadriplegic.” Upon her remarkable recovery he told her that “People like you do not exist.” 

There is no western medical explanation for results like hers. She is a living example of the power of energy medicine—the phenomenal healing capacity of the mind, body, and spirit. Understanding her body from an energetic and spiritual perspective, at the moment she was paralyzed and stopped breathing, she purposefully created the full healing she knows her body was capable of. With compassion, Suzette acknowledges those who did not survive spinal cord injury and those presently living with it. In their memory and for all of humanity, she is impulsed to be making a dramatic impact toward wholeness for all.   Suzette had already dedicated her life to healing, though after looking death in the eye, she has an increased passion to help others redefine impossible. Through energy/sound healing, life coaching, and holistic nutrition Suzette helps her clients heal from chronic & acute pain, arthritis, depression and even cancer. She is also a writer and speaker and has studied with renowned sound healers Jonathan Goldman and Tom Kenyon.  Suzette offers weekly Law of Attraction classes and twice monthly group Sound Healing experiences.  She has co-created her first Healing Tool, a highly conscious CD -- an engaging and powerful sacred sound experience for healing and inner transformation.For more info

MATTHEW: TELL ME ABOUT HEAVEN
The dramatic turning point in Suzy’s ordinary life came when her 17-year old son Matthew died in a vehicle wreck in 1980. She tried to cope with her grief by contacting mediums for news of her son, and all of them told her that when the time was right, she would communicate with him directly. Partly due to 35 years of immersion in Christian dogma and partly to her belief that telepathy is a rare gift and she didn't feel worthy of it, it was hard for her to believe that she and her son would ever talk again, but she never stopped hoping that they would.

Early in 1994, almost 14 years after Matthew died, Suzy heard him speaking to her as clearly as if they were sitting side by side. During the first weeks as she recorded their long conversations at the computer and received the images he sent of himself and his surroundings, she felt both joy and doubt: Was all of this her imagination? When Matthew’s messages turned from describing life in his world to energy, the spiritual hierarchy, the soul, universal laws and other topics beyond Suzy’s comprehension, and he introduced souls from highly advanced civilizations who gave her equally astounding information, she knew this communication wasn’t originating in her mind, it was flowing into it.

Matthew told his mother that her profession as journalist was not by chance; it was the experience she needed to organize and publish the spiritual enlightenment, guidance and encouragement she was receiving from him and the other extraterrestrial souls. Matthew said that in their family’s pre-birth agreement, her primary mission was to make this information available to all receptive people during this era of unprecedented planetary changes. Thus the four Matthew Books were born: Matthew, Tell Me about Heaven, Revelations for a New Era, Illuminations for a New Era, and Voices of the Universe. English editions have sold in 35 foreign countries and one or more of the books have been published in ten other languages.

Transmissions from Matthew continued after publication of the fourth book in December 2003. More than 90 messages are posted on www.matthewbooks.com and translations into several languages are available on www.matthewbooks.net. A revised edition of Revelations for a New Era and Suzy’s own book, Amusing to Profound—My Conversations with Animals, were published in 2009.

With their family of adopted dogs, Suzy and her husband Bob live in a rural area near Vancouver, Washington. Her other three children live in Latin America.     www.matthewbooks.com

The first: “The Fairies: Photographic Evidence of the Existence of Another World” (HarperCollins- 1999) was named by Newsweek magazine as one of the 10 best picture books of the year. Saks Fifth Avenue in NYC immortalized each fairy by showcasing the characters from the book in their spectacular Millennium Fifth Avenue display windows. Suza's second book, "The Witches and Wizards Of Oberin‚” (HarperCollins-2001) continued her journey into the unseen world of magic and mystery.
