New Hampshire Artist & Author Receives Angel Messenger Certification, and Launches New Angel Reading Website

New Hampshire (PRWEB) August 16, 2007

Anne Deidre Smith, a contemporary artist, spiritual book author, intuitive reader and coach from New Hampshire, has added a new designation to her already impressive list of credentials.


Smith recently became a Certified Angel Messenger.


In connection with her new certification, Smith has launched a website, http://www.hearfromyourangels.com , where people can go to receive angel readings and intuitive readings, learn meditation techniques, learn how to give an angel reading, sign up to host an angel party, receive guidance from their angels and much more.


"I've made a conscious effort," Smith said, "to integrate my angel messenger training with my gifts as a contemporary artist and spiritual book author to allow clients to 'really feel the God in us and be able to be forgiving, grateful, and strong.'"


Among those who have already taken advantage of Smith's new website and the angel reading services she provides, is Mary Tesch, who had this to say about the experience:


"Anne is a very special person with great energy, light and healing powers. My angel reading by Anne was amazing. She was able to relay messages from my angels with great wisdom and clarity. I felt great joy and peace throughout my impressive reading. To date my messages are as accurate as the day she relayed them. Anne was also able to recommend some meditations and further book reading which has proven to be very useful. Her intuitiveness is truly a gift from the heavens above."


Business owner Wendy Stevens has also taken advantage of Smith's new angel reading service and had this to say:


"Anne is a very intuitive angel reader. Her readings are very concise and her messages come through with clarity and deep wisdom. She has a strong angel energy and being in her presence is very healing. I would highly recommend her readings, and her book is very compelling. She is a special being!"


Smith is the author of the book, "Inner Visions, The Healing Path of Art," which is for sale at BarnesandNoble.com.


Smith also paints. Her inspirational paintings are currently on display at the Laguna Beach Gallery in California and she has created murals for restaurants and other entertainment establishments.


In addition to her writing and painting, Smith is also a noted expert in meditation techniques, intuitive readings and intuitive coaching. She recently launched a seminar speaking career in an effort to get her message to even more people.


"I want to give people all the tools they need to connect with their inner power because they will experience an incredible sense of increased creativity, peace, joy and optimism when this occurs," said Smith, who received her training as a Certified Angel Messenger and her Angel Attunements from Karen Paolino of Heaven on Earth in Abington, MA.


Paolino herself traveled to California and received her Angel Certification from the renowned Doreen Virtue, Ph.D. back in 2002.


To learn more about Smith's angel readings and other angel-related services, please visit http://www.hearfromyourangels.com , where you can even sign up to receive Smith's electronic newsletter and keep up to date on her future plans.

About Ann Deidre Smith

Ann has always had an interest in art. She studied art in college, focusing on the history of art. She spent summers working as a Museum Guide for the Nantucket Historical Association. After graduating from college with a degree in Art History, she began to paint as a form of expression. Most of her images come from within. One of her greatest joys is being able to translate feelings like despair or pain into an image of Hope, Faith or Love.


Anne's writing has been published in several online publications, featuring articles on spiritual intuition, the God Spark, and others still to come. In addition, her writing has been published on ezinearticles.com as well as newageinfo.com, jtchandler.com, articledashboard.com and goarticles.com.

Outskirts Press Announces the Release of What is the Church?, the Latest Highly-Anticipated Book from Author Hector J. Grant, Sr.

Denver, CO and San Antonio, TX (PRWEB) August 24, 2007

About the Book (Excerpts & Info)


"What Is the Church?" This question guides the Christian in understanding the proper relation that should exist between the individual believer and the institution. The Church is never personal property or a Private Club. The Church is always the association of those who have experienced a personal relationship to Jesus Christ, and are committed to living a life faith despite contrary circumstances.


"Are You Expecting?" is the question that challenges the Christian believer to live a life of constant awareness of what God is doing in the world, and to remain ready to respond when called to unique and special service.


"Finally, Farewell" is the word releasing the baton of service to the trusted hands of others, after a well run leg of the relay race of ministry. These and other sermons challenge both clergy and laity to remain alert to recognize and respond to the many seasons and celebrations of ministry.


Deftly constructed at 196 pages, What is the Church?: Occasional and Seasonal Sermons for the Busy Pastor is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the American - African American category.

About the author:

Hector J. Grant, Sr. is a retired Administrator, Pastor, Preacher and Teacher. He served twenty years as a College Administrator, Minister, Lecturer; and twenty-nine years as pastor of several metropolitan congregations. He is a life long student of the human condition, wielding the writing craft to enrapture the mind much like an artist wields a brush. The pages are a blank canvas on which to draw from a talent heralded by many and matched only by an imagination that rises to the task. What Is The Church? is the third in a series of recent literary pursuits, with work progressing quickly on three further works of similar genre that will quickly follow.


Mr. Grant is a native of Jamaica where he grew up.
