Long-time MSIA Minister, Ellavivian Power, made her transition into Spirit on July 16th. Ellavivian’s daughter, Barbara, wrote a beautiful tribute to her mother in this article:

My mother, Ellavivian Power, made her transition on July 16, 2004. To say she was a unique individual is probably a very big understatement. She was a teacher, mentor, beloved friend, confidant and spiritual advisor to a lot of people across the United States.

I had the unique pleasure of watching and learning from her at a very early age. I started holding the Light in the aura balancing room when I was 13 years of age. There isn’t a day goes by that I don’t use what she has taught me in some way. She could be hard as nails or soft as a bunny depending on just what the person needed to open to their own loving and inner beauty. With the warmth of her loving heart she shared her Light and her wisdom with us for over 90 years. She saved several lives by her devotion to Spirit and her loving heart.

Just to let you know, she hasn’t lost her sense of humor either. After my son and I got back from the hospital after she had made her transition, I heard her laugh and then she said “the joke’s on you.” For those of you who are missing her, she is with you and all you have to do is tap into her and she is right there. She is still doing her work with us from the other side. I feel her presence around me daily and the love I have for her is growing daily also. Thank you, Ellavivian, for being such a strong Light bearer for all of us. I am very proud to be Ellavivian Power’s daughter.
God Bless You, Mom.

Love and Light,
Barbara Martin
