part of its " Lost and Found Sound " series.

 

 

 

Morning Edition, April 2, 2007 · Tammy Faye Bakker Messner may come to mind

when you think of controversial female evangelists.

 

 

 

RASA: NO COMPARISON. TAMMY BAKER HAS NO ANOINTING OR HEALING POWER. How

irresponsible the media can be, how they latch on to only surface realities

and do not amplify the Truth inside, how callous and careless they

are!............(Rasa)

 

 

 

PBS report: But in the early decades of the 20th century, a charismatic

preacher

 

 

 

RASA: MUCH MORE THAN THAT. THE GREATEST FAITH HEALER WHO EVER LIVED.

 

 

 

named Aimee Semple McPherson used the new medium of radio to spread the

gospel to millions of loyal followers.

 

 

 

Sister Aimee, as she was known, made her name in Hollywood

 

 

 

RASA: IN LOS ANGELES AND THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE WORLD, BUT SHE WAS THE

SPIRITUAL LEADER OR 'GENERAL' OF LOS ANGELES.

 

 

 

in the 1920s, and was one of the first preachers to wed Christian

fundamentalism with Hollywood-style theatrics and tabloid-worthy

controversy, including her own mysterious disappearance.

 

 

 

RASA: OF COURSE, THAT IS ALL THAT INTERESTS YOU, AND THOSE WHO ARE OF THE

WORLD. SHE WAS 'MY KINGDOM IS NOT OF THIS WORLD' AND BROUGHT THE POWER OF

GOD TO EARTH, BUT ALL YOU SEE IS THE SURFACE.

 

 

 

She founded the Church of the Foursquare Gospel and built a monumental

temple in Los Angeles.

 

 

 

A documentary on Sister Aimee airs Monday night on PBS. It's based on a new

book by Matthew Avery Sutton, Aimee Semple McPherson and the Resurrection of

Christian America.

 

 

 

RASA: BY WHAT I SAW OF THIS, MATTHEW SUTTON HAS NO VISION OF AIMEE, AND

WITHOUT A VISION, HIS BOOK PERISHES.

 

 

 

Renee Montagne talks to the author about the woman who became a symbol for

religious manipulation and extravagance.

 

 

 

RASA: IT WAS SHE WHO WAS MANIPULATED, IT WAS SHE WHO WAS USED AND EXPLOITED

BY THE MEDIA AND BY THOSE WHO WANTED TO BE HEALED BUT GAVE NOTHING IN

RETURN, NOT EVEN RECOGNITION TO HER. SHE RECEIVED MEAGERLY FOR WHAT SHE

GAVE, AND WAS GREATLY PERSECUTED. THIS IS NOW CONTINUING IN THIS DEPLORABLE

BOOK AND BY THE PBS DOCUDRAMA, AND NOW SHE IS BLAMED FOR THINGS SHE NEVER

DID. ALL SHE DID WAS PRAISE THE LORD AND PASS OUT HIS HEALING POWER, YET

SHE IS BEING BLAMED FOR THIS? SHE MANIPULATED NO ONE, SHE WAS NOT

EXTRAVAGANT, SHE GAVE ASKING NOTHING IN RETURN, HER EXTRAVAGANCE WAS IN

DOING GOD'S WILL AND SPENDING ALL HER MONEY ON GOD'S MISSION.

 

 

 

 

 

NPR.org, March 30, 2007 · Prologue

 

On a brisk fall evening in 1934, six thousand people jammed into the exotic

Shrine Auditorium, the largest and poshest theater in Los Angeles. The

crowds on this particular night had come to witness the only showing of a

spectacular religious pageant like nothing they had ever seen before. At

close to 9:00 p.m., the orchestra came to life, launching into a rendition

of patriotic songs. The curtains swung open and the show began. America's

" Pilgrim Fathers " stepped onto the stage to rousing applause. They reenacted

the landing of the Mayflower at Plymouth Rock and proclaimed the new

nation's foundation on conservative Christian ideals. The Founding Fathers

appeared next. They drew up the U.S. Constitution, a document " conceived in

prayer and executed by Christian gentlemen. " The third scene featured

Abraham Lincoln on his knees in prayer, " seeking guidance of his God in the

times of national stress. " Without a doubt, the Protestant God had blessed

the United States.

 

This harmonious vision of the United States' Christian past began to

disintegrate in the next few scenes, however, as subsequent generations of

Americans who spent too much time trying to be " modern " forgot " that God

founded this nation. " They removed the Bible from schools, embraced the

concept of biological evolution, and, " determined to blot out the God who

had led and nurtured the United States, " turned away from the " old-time "

religion. At this point in the spectacle the orchestra fell silent and a

hush stole over the capacity crowd. The audience tensed, as a sinister

villain, an atheist and a communist, appeared on the stage. He began his

diabolical work by tiptoeing up to an oversized dollar bill and, using a

hammer and chisel, chipped away the words " In God We Trust. " Then he sneaked

over to a massive poster featuring the lines of the national anthem. He

reached down, grabbed a brush, and began splattering red paint across all

references to God. The stunned audience " gasped in horror " as the scoundrel

obliterated the ideas that had been " the very blood and body of our

nation-the very foundation upon which it has stood through the years. "

 

 

 

RASA: IT IS OBVIOUS TO ME THAT THE AUTHOR IS SNEERING, LAUGHING AT THIS

DISPLAY OF LOVE FOR GOD AND COUNTRY. ALTHOUGH I HAVE DISAGREEMENTS WITH

RELIGION IN THE FORM OF PATRIARCHY AND MALE DOMINATION, THESE IDEALS,

EXAMINED HERE, ARE NOBLE AND RIGHTEOUS. SURELY YOU WOULD RATHER HAVE GOD AND

LOVE INSTEAD OF ATHEIST COMMUNISM AND MATERIALISM!

 

But he wasn't done yet. The curtains opened again for the climactic final

scene, revealing the villain's ultimate target-the United States Capitol.

Above the Capitol building flew an American flag, while below it stood the

" sturdy foundation stones " of " government, order, faith, and home. " Miss

America was supposed to be protecting these cherished institutions, but she

had fallen asleep on the Capitol steps. The fiendish burglar laughed

disdainfully as he snatched the foundations of the nation right out from

under her. Then he replaced the flag with the red banner of communism. Just

when it appeared that the rogue had completely undermined the United States,

onto the stage stepped a stunning woman dressed entirely in white-Aimee

Semple McPherson. The crowd went wild, cheering and screaming for the

radiant cultural icon who had created this show.

 

McPherson smiled and bowed. Then, in her high-pitched, nasal, singsong

voice,

 

 

 

RASA: OH, HOW SUTTON WAXES ROUGHSHOD OVER AIMEE. SHE HAD WON MANY

ELOCUTION AND DEBATING AWARDS AND WAS FAMOUS FOR BEING ELOQUENT. LISTENING

TO THE OLD TAPES AND MOVIES YOU CAN HEAR A BEAUTIFUL, MELODIOUS VOICE,

FILLED WITH LOVE, JOY AND ENERGY, SAYING WONDERFUL THINGS.

 

 

 

strained by decades of preaching without amplification,

 

 

 

RASA: NOT STRAINED AT ALL, I HEARD NO STRAIN AT ANY TIME.

 

 

 

she shouted, " America! Awake! The enemy is at your gates! They have

penetrated your walls! America! You are in danger! An enemy power is

penetrating your strongholds! There is death in their hands-the bombs of

atheism and of communism and of anarchy! America! Awake! Defend your own! "

 

 

 

RASA: TO THOSE WHO THINK THIS SOUNDS NAIIVE, IT IS NEVER A WASTE TO WARN

THE PEOPLE ABOUT ATHEISM, LACK OF LOVE AND RESPECT FOR WHAT GOD HAS GIVEN

US. APPRECIATION AND GRATITUDE FOR ALL THAT WE HAVE ARE IN ORDER, AND

ALTHOUGH OUR COUNTRY, LIKE ALL COUNTRIES, IS FLAWED, IT COULD BE WORSE. LOOK

AT THE THIRD WORLD, LOOK AT CHINA AND INDIA, THE POVERTY, THE LACK OF HUMAN

RIGHTS, THE KILLING OF 40 MILLION GIRL BABIES IN INDIA AND 40 MILLION MORE

IN CHINA.

 

Responding to her cry, Uncle Sam jumped onto the stage. He sprinted forward

and grabbed the villain, issuing him a ticket back home- " a ticket back to

Red Russia, a ticket that will take him to the lands where the Stars and

Stripes do not wave. " At the end of the scene, McPherson approached the

Capitol. With the entire audience cheering her on, she removed the

subversive's flag and returned Old Glory to its position atop the dome. The

crowd again erupted into applause. Thanks to McPherson and Uncle Sam, the

Christian foundations of the nation were safe once more.

 

(snipped_

 

Dazzling religious theatrics and a penchant for publicity

 

 

 

RASA: WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY PENCHANT? I HAVE THIS, AS I CONTACT THE MEDIA,

BUT MZ MCPHERSON DID NOT CONTACT THE MEDIA, THEY HOUNDED HER AND WROTE LIES

ABOUT HER BECAUSE SHE SOLD PAPERS, SHE MADE NEWS. NEWSREELS ALSO.

 

 

 

made McPherson one of the most famous American personalities of the interwar

years. The first religious celebrity of the mass media era, she mastered

print, radio, and film for use in her evangelical mission.

 

 

 

RASA: THAT, SHE DID. SHE USED ALL MEDIA FOR THE LORD. FIRST, HER CAR WAS

A VEHICLE AS FEW PEOPLE HAD THEM, AND IT HAD REVIVAL SLOGANS WRITTEN ALL

OVER IT. WITH A WOMAN PREACHER DRIVING THIS BIG CAR, SHE ATTRACTED A CROWD.

BUT THAT WASN'T ALL. SHE HAD A MANUAL TYPEWRITER WITH HER, ON THE ROAD,

WHERE SHE CRANKED OUT A REGULAR NEWSLETTER THAT REACHED THOUSANDS! ALL THIS

WHILE TOWING TWO LITTLE KIDS WITH HER, WITH NOT A GREAT DEAL OF HELP, BUT

SOME. FIRST HER HUSBAND HAROLD (WHO MANAGED THE TENT AMONG OTHER THINGS)

AND WHEN HE QUIT, HER MOM TRAVELLED WITH HER. (HER MOM, WHO GOT MARRIED TO

AN OVER 50 MAN AT 15, WAS NOT MUCH OLDER THAN AIMEE, AND LATER, TRIED TO

TAKE AIMEE'S CHURCH AWAY FROM HER, AND DID ALIENATE THE AFFECTION OF AIMEE'S

DAUGHTER AWAY.)

 

 

 

Her integration of the latest media tools with a conservative creed

established precedents for the twentieth century's most popular ministers,

from Billy Graham to Oral Roberts to Pat Robertson. Possibly more

significant, she brought conservative Protestantism back from the margins to

the mainstream of American culture, by arguing that Christians had an

obligation to fight for the issues they believed in and boldly proclaiming

that patriotism and faith were inseparable.

 

 

 

RASA: WHAT ARE YOU SAYING HERE, THAT ONE CANNOT LOVE THEIR COUNTRY AND

THEIR FAITH AT THE SAME TIME? ONE CAN APPRECIATE ONE'S COUNTRY, WITH ITS

FLAWS, AND EVEN BE A LOYAL DISSIDENT, FIGHTING FOR REFORM, AND ONE CAN

CERTAINLY BELIEVE OUR COUNTRY IS UNDER GOD AT THE SAME TIME...WHY IS THIS

WRONG?

 

 

 

Contemporary evangelical politicians from local school board members to

President George W. Bush are indebted to McPherson for convincing the

faithful that their citizenship in heaven did not nullify their citizenship

on earth, but rather that they should work for a more Christian nation.

 

 

 

RASA: AGAIN I SENSE THE SNEER OF SUTTON. TO COMPARE AIMEE TO BUSH AND OTHER

HYPOCRITES IS LIKE SAYING SHE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THEM, SHE WASN'T LIKE THEM

AT ALL, SHE WAS 100% HONEST ABOUT GOD AND LOVE.

 

THE VALUES OF GOOD CHRISTIANS ARE THE VALUES OF GOOD JEWS, MUSLIMS, HINDUS,

CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS, UNITY, WICCA, MOTHERGOD AND ALL THE REST. WHOM DO YOU

WANT TO LEAD THE COUNTRY AND WORLD, THOSE WHO HAVE NO SPIRITUAL OR RELIGIOUS

AFFILIATION NOR FAITH? WHAT DO YOU WANT AT THE HEAD OF THE COUNTRY,

MATERIALISTS AND ATHEISTS? IS THAT WHO YOU CAN TRUST?

 

LOOK, LET'S FACE IT, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PAT ROBERTSON AND RASA

VON WERDER, ALTHOUGH BOTH ARE RELIGIOUS AND SPIRITUAL. PAT ROBERTSON

BELIEVES IN ONE RELIGION, ONE WAY OF FAITH, AND NO OTHER WAY, AND THIS WAY

SHOULD TAKE OVER OUR COUNTRY. BUT RASA VON WERDER BELIEVES IN A MOTHERGOD

WHO LOVES ALL, AND ALL THOSE WHO ARE TRUE CHRISTIANS DO NOT JUDGE AND

CONDEMN OTHER FAITHS, THEY, LIKE JESUS WITH THE PARABLE OF THE GOOD

SAMARITAN, LOVE ALL PEOPLE, ALL PEOPLE ARE GOD'S CHILDREN AND SHOULD BE

RESPECTED AND CARED FOR.

 

 

 

Finally, with her extraordinary religious fervor and theatricality,

McPherson helped shape one of the twentieth century's most explosive

religious movements-evangelicalism. And she did it, of all places, from just

outside Hollywood.

 

McPherson's religious revival caught the nation off guard. With rapid

urbanization, the discovery of new technologies, the perfecting of powerful

forms of mass media, the rise of the modern university system, and the

growth of a celebrity-centered culture, many Americans in the early

twentieth century predicted the extinction of classic evangelicalism. Yet

from her location in the burgeoning show business capital of the world,

McPherson changed the way American religion is practiced. She combined the

old-time faith, show biz sensibilities, marketing savvy, and passionate

Americanism to revive a seemingly dead movement.

 

 

 

RASA: I DON'T KNOW WHY HE CALLS IT SEEMINGLY DEAD. PENTOCOSTALS, THOSE WHO

BELIEVE IN THE HOLY SPIRIT, WERE ABUNDANT IN THIS ERA, AND TRAVELLED THE

UNITED STATES PREACHING AND DOING HEALINGS. THIS DID NOT DIE OUT UNTIL

KATHRYN KUHLMAN IN THE 70'S, BUT I AM PLANNING TO REVIVE IT.

 

 

 

Rather than wither away, evangelicalism, with its careful integration of

cutting-edge technology, American patriotism, and social conservatism, has

become one of the most influential forces in U.S. history.

 

Although many men and women from a variety of different traditions

contributed to the regeneration of evangelicalism, none compared with

McPherson. As the most famous minister in America during the interwar years,

she became the personification of the old-time religion, by transforming a

conservative religious creed into something as exciting as a swashbuckling

Hollywood adventure. Yet the rapid expansion of this culturally attuned

faith was not without its pitfalls, for McPherson constantly blurred the

boundary between the sacred and the profane. Many critics despised the

seeming irreverence of combining show business with an ancient creed.

 

 

 

RASA: THEY WERE JUST JEALOUS.

 

 

 

Others questioned the creation of all-powerful celebrity preachers who

marketed little more than their own personalities to the masses.

 

 

 

RASA: THAT WAS NOT AIMEE, SHE NEVER CLAIMED ANYTHING BUT JESUS CHRIST AS

THE POWER AND GAVE HIM ALL THE GLORY.

 

 

 

Still others who decried the mixing of faith and politics warned that the

First Amendment was under siege.

 

 

 

RASA: SHE WAS NOTHING LIKE PAT ROBERTSON, SHE LOVED EVERYONE AND GAVE FOOD

TO EVERYONE OF ALL FAITHS. YOU JUST HAD TO CALL HER CHURCH AND ASK FOR FOOD

AND NO QUESTIONS, A BOX WAS SENT TO YOUR HOUSE, WHEREAS PAT ROBERTSON IS A

BIG-TIME BUSINESSMAN WHO OWNS GOLD MINES IN AFRICA USING CHEAP LABOR, AND

USES HIS MONEY TO BANKROLL HIS MINISTRY WITH STRONG POLITICAL AMBITIONS.

AIMEE NEVER WANTED TO BE A POLITICIAN OR BIG SHOT POLITICAL LEADER, SHE JUST

WANTED TO FOLLOW THE WILL OF GOD, GET PEOPLE SAVED, HEALED AND FED.

 

 

 

And there was an even darker side to this evangelical culture, fueled by

McPherson and her allies' constant search for signs of the impending rise of

the Antichrist. Like the Puritans before them, they tended to interpret

daily events within the framework of a continuous cosmic struggle between

good and evil. Because they never knew when and where the devil might

strike, they remained very suspicious of " outsiders. " Regardless of how

successful such believers became, they saw themselves as a besieged

minority, a faithful remnant, charged with holding back the forces of the

apocalypse. This ideological commitment, which kept them constantly on the

defensive,

 

 

 

RASA: THE WORLD IS 'THE CHURCH MILITANT,' A PLACE OF THE BATTLE OF GOOD VS.

EVIL, AND THE DEVIL DOES GO ABOUT 'LIKE A ROARING LION SEEKING WHOM HE MAY

DEVOUR' SO SHE WAS RIGHT. THESE DEMONS ARE IN HIGH PLACES, INCLUDING OUR

AND ALL GOVERNMENT, BIG BUSINESS, BIG CHURCHES AND ALL PLACES OF INFLUENCE,

AND THESE ARE MOSTLY PATRIARCHAL FORCES. HERE EVIL HAS SOLIDIFIED ITS CLAWS

IN DISCRIMINATION, EXPLOITATION, LYING, STEALING AND KILLING. WE LIVE IN A

WICKED WAR ECONOMY WHICH WANTS OVERPOPULATION IN ORDER TOHAVE A POWERFUL

MILITARY AND LOTS OF BODIES TO SEND OFF TO WAR, SO YES, WE DO HAVE TO LOOK

OUT FOR THE INTERESTS OF GOD AND LOVE. HERE SUTTON IS MAKING AIMEE SOUND

LIKE A PARANOID WEIRDO, BUT SHE WAS A LOGICAL AND EFFECTIVE WARRIOR FOR GOD.

 

 

 

fueled a nativist tendency that occasionally surfaced in damaging ways.

 

 

 

RASA: HE SHOULD EXPLAIN WHAT HE MEANS BY DAMAGING WAYS.

 

 

 

But the greatest controversy affecting McPherson centered not on her

religious innovations or her sporadic xenophobia but on her personal life.

When, at the peak of her fame, she became embroiled in what appeared to be a

major sex scandal, she nearly landed in jail. She discovered that the same

publicity tools that had helped her create a religious empire could just as

easily destroy her. Ultimately, however, she rebounded from the controversy

and returned to the national spotlight during World War II to solidify the

marriage between evangelicalism and patriotic politics.

 

On one level this is the story of the rise, fall, and redemption of one of

the most fascinating characters in American history, Aimee Semple McPherson.

But it is much more than that. It is also the story of how Americans came to

embrace a thoroughly modern form of evangelicalism that had its roots in

McPherson's innovations and concerns, one that has flourished to this day.

Indeed, the tensions and controversies that characterized McPherson's world

have come to define faith and politics in the twenty-first-century United

States.

 

 

 

RASA: OK, YOU GET IT BUT YOU DON'T GET IT. YOU SEE THE EFFECT SHE HAD IN

ONE AREA, BUT YOU DON'T SEE HER. I WILL CHANNEL AIMEE AND REVEAL WHAT WAS

INSIDE HER SKIN.

 

Excerpted from Aimee Semple McPherson and the Resurrection of Christian

America by Matthew Avery Sutton. Published by Harvard University Press.

 

 

 

RASA: OH HARVARD, OF COURSE HARVARD, THE HOME OF THE WISE ASSES, THOSE WHO

KNOW THE PRICE OF EVERYTHING AND THE VALUE OF NOTHING, THE KNOW IT ALLS WHO

DON'T KNOW ABOUT GOD AND HEAVEN. HEY, ALL YOUR BOOKS - YOU CAN'T TAKE THEM

WITH YOU!

 

 

 

RASA CHANNELS AIMEE SEMPLE MCPHERSON:

 

 

 

Rasa: Aimee, does anything bother you about this book and the PBS

docudrama?

 

 

 

AIMEE: WELL, IT KIND OF BOTHERS ME THAT THEY FAIL TO SEE THE TRUTH OF WHAT

MADE ME TICK, THE GREAT LOVE OF GOD. THEY DON'T SEE IT THAT WAY, AND YOU

ARE RIGHT TO CHASTIZE THEM FOR THEIR POINT OF VIEW. THEY JUST DON'T SEE THE

LOVE.

 

 

 

Rasa: Even Richard Rossi, whom I like and respect, did not do justice to

your story because he thought you had a conflict between the flesh and

spirit, in falling in love with the whoremaster after you had your

breakdown, etc., and he portrayed it that way in his movie. I am pretty mad

about that.

 

 

 

AIMEE: WHAT DO YOU EXPECT, HE'S A MAN. ONLY YOU AND OTHERS LIKE YOU, WHO

ARE ONE WITH GOD, COULD REALLY SEE IT MY WAY. UNLESS A PERSON IS THERE,

THEY PROJECT THEIR OWN IDEAS AND OPINIONS AND THEIR OWN DESIRES ONTO ME.

 

 

 

Rasa: What should I do to make sure that my life is portrayed properly

while I am living and after I'm dead. I can see by your example they will

make mincemeat out of my life. If they find fault with you, they will

surely skewer me over the coals, as they are now, even as I live, and I

expect from some quarters it will get worse after I die. They have all my

adult media work to use against me, while they had practically nothing

against you except people's imaginations.

 

 

 

AIMEE: THIS IS YOUR CROSS, SO BEAR IT WELL. SPEAK UP FOR THE WOMEN IN THE

TRADE, THEY NEED REPRESENTATION. ALTHOUGH THEY WILL TRY AND USE IT AGAINST

YOU, IT WILL HELP MANY, WHEN THEY SEE THAT A WOMAN IN THE TRADE WAS SO CLOSE

TO GOD AND DID SO MANY GOOD THINGS, AND WHEN YOU START YOUR HEALINGS, I WILL

BE WITH YOU AND JESUS WILL WORK THROUGH YOU. YOU WILL LEAVE MUCH MORE

FAITH-BASED WORK BEFORE YOU DIE THAN YOU ALREADY HAVE, SO IT WILL RUN IN

YOUR FAVOR.

 

TO MAKE SURE YOUR LIFE IS WELL REPRESENTED, WRITE AS MUCH AS YOU CAN ABOUT

YOURSELF, LEAVING IT IN BOOKS, AND THEY CANNOT IGNORE IT COMPLETELY. MAKE

IT EXPLICIT AND STRAIGHTFORWARD WHAT YOU SUFFERED, WHAT YOU FELT, WHAT YOU

REALLY DID, SO THAT UNLESS THEY ARE TOTAL LIARS AND IDIOTS, THEY CANNOT MISS

IT.

 

 

 

Rasa: I have some of your books and you represented yourself so well, but

do they consult your books? No, they mostly consult the media and the

slander and sensationalism of your life, what others did to you. I totally

believe your kidnapping, it all makes sense, they didn't even try to find

the shack where you were held captive, they did not even examine the ransom

notes - they just didn't try at all.

 

 

 

AIMEE: RASA, DON'T WORRY ABOUT ME, WORRY ABOUT YOURSELF. I DO APPRECIATE

YOU STICKING UP FOR ME, BUT I WOULD RATHER STICK UP FORYOU. I WILL BE WITH

YOU IN SPIRIT. FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE, FIGHT FOR YOUR MINISTRY, IT IS

PRECIOUS. NO WOMAN HAS CARRIED A CROSS SUCH AS YOU, WHO ENTERED INTO

MINISTRY AS YOU HAVE. IT IS REFRESHING AND DELIGHTFUL, JUST GO FOR IT.

TALK ABOUT THE TRADE, DON'T BE ASHAMED, AND OTHER WOMEN WILL BE EMBOLDENED

TO STAND UP FOR THEMSELVES AND HAVE SELF RESPECT. TALK ABOUT IT IN THE

MEDIA, JUST SAY WHAT YOU THINK AND FEEL, IT WILL ALL COME OUT GOOD.

 

 

 

Rasa: Aimee, I feel I am not doing enough no matter how hard I try. I need

to get into the media again, but I am having trouble. The first book did

not get me across, and I did not try with the next two. Will the dream book

give me any more success? Unless I get some publicity, the books will

remain on the shelves.

 

 

 

AIMEE: YOUR DAY IS COMING, OH, HOW IT IS COMING. I AM LAUGHING INSIDE WHEN

I SEE YOU TRAVELLING AND NOT EVEN HAVING TIME TO ANSWER YOUR MAIL. IT WILL

HAPPEN SOON, NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO OR DON'T DO. JUST TAKE IT EASY, TRY AND

ENJOY YOUR LIFE AND YOUR DAYS, AND DO NOT DESPAIR OR FEEL ANXIETY. DO

CONTACT THE MEDIA AND SEND YOUR BOOKS TO THE BIGGEST ONES, DO WRITE THEM AND

DO NOT GIVE UP. YES, YOU WILL GET SOME RESPONSES. SOMETIMES YOU FORGET HOW

HARD IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING WITH STRIPPING FOR GOD AND BODYBUILDING. THINK

OF IT LIKE THAT, A NEW PROJECT, A NEW NAME, EVERYTHING NEW, AND IT CANNOT BE

DONE QUICKLY BUT IT WILL BE DONE.

 

 

 

Rasa: We Matriarchs are just a small group, working together, and I feel

especially sorry that William Bond gets so discouraged in spite of all the

work he does, he gets so little in return. What do you think of the coming

Matriarchy? What do you think of our part in it?

 

 

 

AIMEE: OH, HOW I WISH I COULD BE BACK ON EARTH WHEN MATRIARCHY FLOWERS

AGAIN! IT'S BEEN LONG IN COMING, BUT IT'S COMING. WHAT YOU GUYS ARE DOING

IS IMPORTANT, JUST KEEP ON, IT IS IN THE DOING OF IT YOU WILL BE BLESSED.

HOLD ONE ANOTHER UP. IF ONLY YOU ALL COULD SEE ONE ANOTHER TO STRENGTHEN

EACH OTHER. THINK OF SOME WAY YOU COULD BE FRIENDLIER AND CLOSER TO EACH

OTHER, AS IT WOULD HELP, BUT YOU ARE ALL TOO ISOLATED.

 

 

 

Rasa: When I begin to travel, certainly we can meet if I am in England, but

closeness on a regular basis seems possible only with the internet. Perhaps

some day we will have webcams, perhaps there will be many more of us to keep

us company. How can we keep up our enthusiasm over Matriarchy?

 

 

 

AIMEE: BY THINKING ABOUT IT. I KEPT MY FAITH ALIVE BY READING THE BIBLE,

THINKING OF OUR LORD, ANSWERING QUESTIONS AND DOING THE PRAYING AND HEALING.

BOTH YOU AND WILLIAM WILLNEVER GIVE UP, YOU ARE BOTH MATRIARCHS FOREVER, NO

MATTER WHAT YOU DO, YOU WILL BE THAT WAY AND NEVER CHANGE, SO IT WON'T GO

AWAY. TRY NOT TO WORRY, AND IT WILL ALL GO SMOOTHLY. THE ONLY BAD THING IS

YOUR WORRYING OR FRETTING ABOUT IT. YOU ARE BOTH A SUCCESS, YOU ARE ALL

DOING SUCCESSFUL WORK, AND SO, DO NOT BE TROUBLED.

 

 

 

Rasa: Thank you, Aimee, that is it for now, Eternal Rest to you in your

Comprehension of God, how Beautiful it must be!

 

 

 

AIMEE: WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE THE BOUNTY AND THE BEAUTY HERE IN ETERNITY,

FOR THOSE WHO LOVED GOD. IF ONLY ALL COULD SEE IT, THEY WOULD SUFFER

ANYTHING TO GET IT. TELL THEM THAT.

 

 

 

Rasa: We have. Until we speak again, Infinite Love.

 

 

 

AIMEE: SAME HERE, MY DAUGHTER AND MY SISTER IN LOVE.

 

 

 

NEW RULES FOR DEVOTEES: From now on, in order to be a devotee IN GOOD

STANDING, OR ACTIVE DEVOTEE WHO RECEIVES MY POWER, you are required to do

the following: Each month send ONE DOLLAR to my Post Office Box 643,

Windsor, New York, 13865, and IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD THE DOLLAR write me and

tell me, asking me to SEND THE POWER OF THE ANOINTING NEVERTHELESS. If you

do not request the anointing monthly, it might get cut off, (unless you have

donated properly in the past) and this request insures you that you will

continue receiving my Power. I will no longer allow my devotees to take

this Anointing for granted, believing that they have to do NOTHING and can

ask me for favors while doing NOTHING for myself and the church. Obviously,

one dollar is a pittance, a small amount and a token. But since ALL OF YOU

HAD EXCUSES WHEN I ASKED FOR DECENT CONTRIBUTIONS IN THE PAST, and most of

you SIMPLY IGNORED ME FOR A LONG TIME NOT WANTING TO DONATE, I have changed

the conditions so that NO ONE WHO IS POOR CAN SAY THEY CANNOT AFFORD TO

DONATE, so here it is, the requirement to receive my power. Fulfillment of

this requirement will keep you in good standing and lack of fulfillment may

cut you off. You will see the difference when you disobey. Those who are

in Europe may send a Euro or a Pound, whatever denomination your country

issues.
