WITNESS FOR OUR TIME is an amazing story of a prophetic and visionary woman, Blessed Marie Anne Blondin,who founded a religious community in 1850 and was quickly silenced by a Church and political society who were unable to see what she saw. In 1890, she died unrecognized as the Foundress of the Sisters of Saint Ann.
Today, 117 years later, she is revisiting our planet with Divine messages. She comes to comfort, heal and direct people in all walks of life, no matter what race or creed. This is an astonishing story of Divine partnership involving many people who can testify to what they have seen, felt and heard. The people involved in this story are mysteriously led to a place of spirituality and healing at Queenswood Centre in Victoria, British Columbia, where the Sisters of Saint Ann continue the work of their Foundress.
Sister Eileen Curteis, the scribe of this book, was unexpectedly visited by her Foundress on December 10, 2000, at a Reiki healing retreat. It was an overwhelming experience for all the people present. Unbeknown to Sister Eileen, it was the beginning of a journey that would involve many people who would testify to the greatness of what God is doing in our time.
This is an exciting book about spiritual evolution and goes far beyond what the finite mind can fathom. None of the people, including the scribe, expected to connect with a holy woman from the other side and, yet, each time a new visitation occurred, the authenticity of what was going on became more and more real.

"Eileen Curteis is one of the most extraordinary writers I have come across in my life. Every word that she writes is so beautifully thought out. The reader has a chance to enter her life and mind with the feeling of knowing this woman as if she is a sister rather than a stranger. She shares with us her first hand experiences of how a life filled with complexities and pain can turn around into a life of peaceful healing. This book has made me think way beyond the time of reading it. I highly recommend it to anyone who would like to take part in Eileen Curteis's inspirational journey to spiritual healing.

NON-FICTION | SPIRITUALITY / HEALING
Soul Travel: A Roadway to Healing opened a door for me through which I could access the mystical truth inside the human Journey. To me, this book reflects more divine inspiration than any popular book on spirituality or mysticism that I have read in recent years. As I listened to Sister Eileen’s CD, I was moved to tears. I felt peaceful and serene as though I had found my way home from a long and arduous journey. The only thing more amazing than Sister Eileen’s book is Sister Eileen herself – a being of truth, love and courage. – Ron Ingram, Author and Teacher. - $25.00 with cD

BOOK REVIEW – Witness For Our Time
So many thoughts are passing through my mind as I read Witness For Our Time. I don’t know where to begin. Yes, the time is now! Mother Marie Anne’s message could not be received and understood until all the old, former things of the 19th Century had passed away. Anyone reading Eileen’s book will be astonished by what the witnesses reveal, wondrous stories, each of them as miraculous as the next. The bestselling author, scientist and visionary, Gregg Braden, observed that only a small number (the square root of 1%) of the population is needed to affect profound, life and conscious-altering changes. Eileen’s book does this!As much as the biography of Blessed Marie Anne Blondin pleasantly startled me, I was at the same time saddened by the image of an all-powerful church that silenced this visionary woman. Now that great institution, in its turn, is being silenced by her own children who, like the phoenix, are rising out of the ashes of an old world order to carry out the Plan of God. The human race is laboring forth a new consciousness. It delights me that Eileen’s book is about this massive birthing!
