Council Members

Revd. Raymond Brown (President & Trustee) has been involved with healing virtually all his life. From a very early age he had out-of-body experiences; Spirit's preparation for his life of dedication in allowing Spiritual Surgeon Paul to completely take over his body. This unique partnership has benefitted thousands of people who would otherwise be suffering pain. Raymond dedicates most of his days to going into trance and allowing Paul to work through him. History knows him as 'Paul of Tarsus', but his grateful patients simply know him as Paul. Raymond and his wife Gillian have experienced many challenges, but their love for Spirit has never wavered and together they give so many people the opportunity of being treated by Paul.

 

 

Revd. Gillian Brown (Vice-president & Trustee) Raymond's wife was a founder member of the Bury St Edmunds Spiritualist Church and served as Secretary and President for over 15 years. Her life was devoted to spiritual work and helping people to learn of Spirit and train as mediums. She was a medium and healer with the NFSH as well as qualifying with the London School of Aromatherapy as a Holistic Therapist. This led her to meet Raymond and start working alongside Paul. With her experience and many skills, she organised Raymond's life so that Paul could reach more patients. For many years now she has been the cheerful and dedicated catalyst between Raymond and Paul, arranging healing clinics, seminars and demonstrations all over the world.

 

 

Revd. Susan Hewitt (Chairman, Trustee and Editor) travelled extensively with her Army parents and international hotel career before settling in Yorkshire. She has worked for Spirit for over 35 years and has trained and progressed as a clairvoyant, trance medium, spiritual writer and psychic artist. She is a spiritual healer practitioner / trainer using Paul's healing methods. Susan and Tony have a dedicated healing group at Harmony Church and Healing Sanctuary near Scarborough. Susan's background is in administration, personnel management and training, health and hospitality and she is dedicated to promoting spiritual healing and teachings.

 

 

 

Revd. Arlene Brigden has been working with spirit for the past 35 years as a medium and healer. She was trained by Stella Shafe working with the Sussex healers, when about 20 years ago she started inspirational writing. She had a spirit message from a Dr. Hoist saying that one day she would be privileged to work with a spiritual surgeon. This came to fruition some 8 years ago when she met Raymond Brown and of cause spiritual surgeon Paul. She now has the privilege of working with both Raymond and Paul at their Brighton clinic and at other times continues to offer hands on healing at her own healing centre in Brighton.

 

 

 

Revd. Jim Beaney first met Paul about 8 years ago when visiting his clinic with a shoulder injury. Following a successful treatment and cure, he became interested in Spirit and healing wanting to find out more. Some time later during a clinic session he was asked to assist Paul in giving healing to a male patient. Jim and Revd. Arlene Brigden now run a regular healing clinic dedicated to Paul's healing methods in their home town of Brighton. Jim is the proprietor of his own company which deals with products aimed to improve automotive emission control.

 

 

 

Revd. Gordon Anderson was born in Lanarkshire into a family of ten children which taught him about a sharing work ethic and helping other people became a way of life. He was also guided by words of wisdom from his mother at an early age which impressed upon Gordon the reality to earn a living within the family structure. He left Scotland in 1970 with a wife and five children, but all the time he was growing up, felt that there was something he had to do, and on discovering the ICHF, now knows what it is. On a visit to the then-unfinished Church of St Paul near Scarborough the thought of "You have come home" came into his head. He was vice-president of Filey Spiritualist Church at the time where he was also given proof that Paul was 'the real deal'.

 

 

Revd. Christine Hemingway has been aware of Spirit most of her life as her grandmother was clairvoyant and her father was a healer. After devoting much of her life to being a wife and mother, in 1997 she feels she was guided to Spirit Paul, his teachings and his doctors. Chrissie is a Healer Trainer and was very excited to be part of the planning and building of the first Church of St Paul and feels so very privileged to work as one of Paul's Ministers. Chrissie has been the curator of a prestigious art gallery and also the manager of another gallery in Whitby.

 

 

 

Dr. Kristin Becker, originally from Germany, lives and works in North Wales. Kristin is a Healer Trainer and a trainee minister with the International Church of St. Paul.

 

 

 

 

 

The Management Committee also includes two 'Membership Representatives', as below:-

 

Mrs Rita Reed (Trustee)became aware of healing over 40 years ago when she asked for help for a young, terminally-ill boy. She saw the help he was given and started her search for spiritual truths. She eventually trained as a healer and medium and worked with her husband who was a psychic artist. Since he passed, she has worked on her own. Her main love and interest is in healing and she has been training healers for about 15 years. Having become aware of, and impressed by Paul’s healing, she is now delighted to be a trainer for the ICHF

 

 

 

Mr.Mark Smith lost his mother to cancer when he was only 10 years old, but after seeing her following the funeral, it changed his whole perception of life as he then realised that we all live on after physical death. He started his spiritual journey by being baptised into the Mormon church where he became an ordained priest serving a 2 year mission. He then became involved with spiritualist churches where he developed his mediumship and eventually healing. He was privileged to meet Paul and be taught the truth of spirit which he tries to pass on through the many churches he serves. Mark currently works in a care home but in his spare time teaches the martial art of Iaido - 'Way of the sword', in which he has attained 3rd dan black belt.
