Save the Date!
The 8th Annual
Afterlife Conference
Nov. 1-4, Orlando, FL.
I
t's still a year away, but planning our annual conference is a full-time job, and we're hard at work putting together our roster for 2018. Our new web page will be up in early November, and earlybird registration opens in December. Stay tuned for updates and announcements.
I
n the meantime, some important messages...
1. Next month we launch the
Afterlife Conference Ambassadors
program for
those who would like to be promotional partners. Perks include commission fees, ads in our printed program, your flyers in conference goodie bags, and much more. Details to come.
2. Although we've expanded our focus to include mainstream content related to end-of-life care, scientific research and theological study, much of our audience is primarily interested in messages from mediums. So in 2018 we will have an "open reading room" where mediums will offer FREE gallery-style audience readings throughout the day.
3. FYI: Ever since we started our conference in 2010, we have faced challenges from other organizations referring to themselves as "The Afterlife Conference." Please note that we are the origina
l Afterlife Conference, and we trademarked that name in 2011. Some folks have confused us with a conference that's been held in Arizona for the past few years, but we are not affiliated with that group, even through they sometimes refer to their event as "the afterlife conference."

Invisible Helpers
by Terri Daniel
Many people involved in afterlife research believe that the most reliable accounts of communication across dimensions come from documents published prior to 1950 (before mediumship became a fad). Back in those days these activities were considered "dabbling in the occult," and were kept in the closet for fear of being shunned by society, church and family. But a few brave explorers stood firm in their convictions and published books and articles about their experiences.
One of the most important accounts from that era is a book published in 1915 by CW Leadbeater called
Invisible Helpers. This book has tremendous significance for me because it verified many of the communications I was receiving, and I wrote about it in my 2010 book,
Embracing Death. To read about Invisible Helpers and my remarkable experience with it,

The Best Song About Death
Ever
!
While driving the other day I heard this song on
Prarie Home Companion and listened in amazement, with tears flowing. Of all the songs ever written about death, from old-time gospel tunes to new age meditations, I've never heard one that hits the mark about conscious dying like this one does. Listen to the song in the video above (you can find the lyrics
HERE)
