| Maria Woodworth-Etter |
There is a wonderful Facebook page started by Maria's great-great-great grandson Jack Welch of Lite The Fire. I reached out to Jack

God's timing is so perfect...We decided to meet for coffee. They are an incredible couple claiming their inheritance, walking in the anointing, and working to uncap, or re-dig, the wells of Jack's grandmother Maria Woodworth-Etter.
Testimonies & Prophetic Words
A PROPHETIC WORD COMES TO PASS:
My family thinks I am crazy for believing in a supernatural God who loves them. The "religious spirit" was all they ever knew of, and turned away from. About a year ago, a particular family member was going through a tough time and I asked God for a word to share with her. He gave me a vision of her standing in a beautiful garden dressed in vivid colors. In my spirit, I heard, "she is one of the most beautiful flowers in my garden". When I relayed this message to her, she laughed and said I was just making things up to make her feel better. She said," IF God is real, there are so many people on the planet, he wouldn't bother with me". She didn't believe she was worthy of God's love or attention. But she asked me to describe the garden anyway and I said, "beautiful colors, flowers and plants, new growth and blooms all over the place and you are dressed in the colors of the garden, and there are swarms of butterflies over the garden."

Indiana Voice Journal October 2015 Issue #15
The English Poet John Keats summed it up pretty well when he said, "The poetry of the earth is never dead". He was right. I love the "poetic" Fall season in Indiana. Here on my little spot of earth, the autumn sunshine blends a palette of colors across the tree tops- red, yellow, gold, orange, and brown. The air is chilly, perfect for nighttime bonfires, and scented ripe with the smell of molding leaves, haystacks, and wayward apples rotting against the ground. Art, poetry, motion, and life. If you think about it, there is much life even in the act of dying.
Welcome to the October 2015 issue of Indiana Voice Journal. Our 15th issue includes 20 poets, 3 creative nonfiction essays, 2 fiction stories, and a book review. It contains a masterful blend of art, poetry, motion, and life. This issue promises something for everyone. Thank you for reading and supporting these amazing authors by leaving a comment on their posts.
