This is the story of May Eulitt, who had a near-death experience after being struck by lightning. She told of finding herself in another world which she recognized as an altered state of reality. In her experience, she spent 600 years in this other world before dying — when she found herself back in her normal life. To those who witnessed the event, no more than a minute had passed.
Her experiences are told in the book “Fireweaver,” which can be ordered from Xlibris.com or purchased at the Free Spirit Center.
The discussion will be open to all interested persons, but space is limited and reservations are requested. They may be made by calling the center at 249-4194.
