Dec. 15, 1914 - Nov. 26, 2003

A child of the Depression era, Mrs. Seivertson tucked away the firm conviction of her earliest memories that she would be an author to meet the needs of her family. She was one of two graduates who got a job at that time and was the support of her mother and father.

These two facets of her personality have often complimented each other but more often they have been in conflict. Nevertheless, the last twenty years of her life she has been fulfilled creatively while still meeting needs of other persons.

Her spiritual stretching began around 1945 when an unusually broad minded wife of the minister of a traditional church introduced her to the writings of Glenn Clark, founder of the Camps Farthest Out; Agnes Sanford, pioneer in bringing the art of healing back into the public eye; Starr Daily, one-time convict who had a personal experience with Jesus Christ in solitary confinement; Frank Laubach, the missionary who began the "Each One Teach One" system of overcoming illiteracy in every corner of the globe, and many others. She became active in the Camps, filling is where needed, sometimes in charge of the book table, other times acting as secretary of the whole camp and always acting as a prayer group leader.

Through the same woman who opened the door to CFO, she met Eleanore Mary Thedick, founder of the Christ Ministry Foundation. Mrs. Thedick, a Christian mystic, opened Genevah's inner spiritual centers and widened her scope of understanding of the little known Mystery Teachings of the great Masters. Genevah's husband, Wayne and her niece, Shirley also came under this growing and Mrs. Seivertson was able to "balance" these two greatly gifted persons. The stability of her gift which let Wayne and Shirley use their clairvoyance, clairsentience and clairaudience without falling prey to the negative forces around them is brought out in the book already published, The Christ Highway and the one offered on this webpage, Let The Extraordinary Become Ordinary.

Mrs. Seivertson's special gift is called "Knowing." Mistakenly thinking of her quick solutions to problems as intelligent thinking, she has come to realize that the words of her mouth and the meditations of her heart are truly given to her by God.

Using that gift in writings which will never be published are the thousands of letters written in answer to the deep spiritual work her husband and she did after they were given Mrs. Thedick's foundation. In The Sharing Sheet originated by Mrs. Seivertson, the duo offered their services of deep inner prayer. Phone calls came in as well as letters and Genevah learned to go to sleep with her ears so attuned that when the phone rang, she was immediately alert to the needs of the person on the other end of the phone.

Trained as a licensed Unity teacher, she taught classes in a Unity church and went on to lecture in her own way.

Mrs. Seivertson and her husband as well as the Reverend Vincent Evenson led a weekend retreat at the Cenacle House in Sacramento in 1977. Anyone would be hard pressed to convince those who participated in this event that we weren't extremely involved in the breaking of the 1977 drought. Planned for that very purpose, the dedication and belief of the group was magnificent. The sky enveloping color demonstration which extended from the retreat house to the turnoff at 680, about 50 miles was to us an assurance that we had done a good job. Newspapers had said that three years of rainy seasons would be necessary to fill the reservoirs and replenish the ground water, yet the reservoirs were full in three weeks!

Genevah began a Creative Writing class for senior citizens in Sacramento. Asked to give a description of her course, her philosophy of life was given in the following sentence: "Why, I'll just meet the needs of those who come." This philosophy is carried through in the manuscript's chapter on "Corridors" which provides a recognizable route for those who depart this life suddenly and feel dazed and confused.
