About our Founder:
   Reverend James Edward Smith - February 20, 1929 – June 17, 2000 - Reverend James Edward Smith, /Henry – Founder of the Henry Foundation and Master Teacher was one of the most powerful psychics in the metaphysical field who worked helping people all over the world for over fifty years prior to his death June 17, 2000. He become better known in the metaphysical field by the name of Henry, which he adopted from a higher entity that he advocated, was his source from which he received channeled information and knowledge.
   He was a native of Omaha, Nebraska, USA, born February 20, 1929, went to Creighton University and was the proud father of four with twenty-one lovely grandchildren. He was a minister in the Universal Life Church, served in the armed forces, worked as a professional photographer and traveled extensively in the USA and abroad. He pioneered and taught Introduction to Metaphysics’ classes at the Omaha Metropolitian Community College.
   Henry’s commitment and main purpose for embodiment during this great golden age was to spark the flame within others, to encourage them to further their quest towards the Christ Consciousness, inspiring them to find “their way”, to search for their own truths, to become aware of their true potential, helping them to work towards opening their heart center and encouraging them to look to the God within. The emphasis of his work was always self-development and spiritual growth through raising energies and new thought philosophy. He helped countless numbers of people over the years to find direction and purpose for their lives. He offered understanding and insight into a persons true self, answers to specific areas in their lives whether spiritual, emotional, physical, financial, relationships, future events, attitudes or otherwise. He was enlightening, detailed and precise. His abilities in reading the Akashic Records as well as the Records of Probability gave him an edge. The higher part of James/Henry saw ALL in everyone. Anyone that crossed his path in this incarnation received a blessing of their entire evolution!
   Being a gifted spiritual healer/teacher and a fountain of knowledge, his talents and abilities in helping people find peace within their lives were endless. He was an expert in raising energies, meditation, psychic and spiritual development offering growth at all levels, body, mind and spirit. His warmth and humor permeated his teachings, he combined his psychic gifts, clairvoyance and ability in reading auras to help people understand and give them a perspective of what was needed to achieve their goals and bring harmony into their lives. His advice related suggestions and personal choices that could be made for change of attitudes and actions that when applied could help make one’s life go better. His greatest desire was to see people live their lives with Love – Light – Harmony & Joy.
   Master Teacher and friend, he is truly missed, but we feel he is still very connected spiritually to those still in embodiment on planet earth to continue his great works for the force.
May the Force be with you!
