Born and raised in the Netherlands, Johanna is married, a mother and a grandmother. Johanna lived in California many years ago, and while there, learned about the Search For God material in the Edgar Cayce readings, and A Course in Miracles; she has been a student of both since. Upon returning to Europe, her family settled in Belgium and Johanna taught English in high school for many years. Currently, she and her husband reside in Switzerland, and she works from home writing educational material. Johanna is a volunteer on the moderator team for the Foundation for Inner Peace’s Facebook group, “Let’s Discuss” A Course in Miracles.

Derek picked up A Course in Miracles after having seen it referenced in The Power of Now in 2002. After initially concluding that it made no sense and putting it down for a year, he kept being drawn to it, picking it up and putting it down many times over 10 years before finally becoming clear that this was his lifelong path. In the five years since then, life has transformed in ways he could not have imagined. One of his greatest joys is volunteering for The Foundation for Inner Peace because of all the wonderful friends he has made there.

She has been immersed in studying and practicing A Course in Miracles for the past 40 years, sharing that it is her “given – and chosen – life’s work”. Keri completes her daily ACIM practices as her Guidance dictates and has always felt a close relationship with Jesus. She learned from Judith Skutch, “the more you reread and practice the Course, it’s like peeling into the ever-richer layers of an onion”.
