“RAYE's VISION, through The Spirit Messenger (TSM), is to not only unite all Spiritualist Churches/Centres and spiritualists alike but also to help people who want to develop their mediumship. Also, for those who are in need of comfort - to make genuine contacts and to become aware of the Spirit World. Before the days of Websites!!! As a working medium, I was always being asked ‘Do you know a good genuine medium?' - And where can I find one?’ Although there were spiritual magazines and papers circulated, there didn’t seem to be an intimate communication between the churches - where to find a local Spiritualist Church, a circle, development workshops, healing or counselling within the movement. ‘THE ACORN WAS PLANTED’ in Raye's mind and as time went on it was watered and became a little seedling – and in April 1999, The Spirit Messenger was founded.
