The Arthur Ford International Academy of Mediumship was founded in 1974 by Patricia Hayes, administrative assistant, colleague and friend of the late Arthur Ford, world famous medium.
A Letter from the Founder
Dear Friend,
Arthur Ford made his transition to the other side in 1971. I had worked with Arthur the last five years of his life as his personal liaison and was with him at his passing.
In 1974, Arthur came to me in a psychic vision. In that moment, I saw the process, method, and direction for a new concept of mediumship.
The new concept was introduced to sensitive individuals selected from a cross section of the country. Those first students experienced a spiritual reality that far surpassed their greatest expectations.
This training method continues to prove effective and inspiring. The experiences and methods of spiritual communication learned continue to be of value in the daily lives of our students. Many choose to continue their studies with our school and use their spiritual gifts and intuitive talents professionally.
Science is coming to understand what mystics have always known. We can use our spiritual gifts to be of greater service to our fellow man. The gifts of healing and spiritual communication can be developed to help us live our lives with greater depth, purpose and direction. We can choose to develop our intuitive and spiritual abilities to share greater love, peace, joy and healing with all who are in our presence.
In Love and Light,
Patricia Hayes
