Notes and Updates Notes and updates on healingandrevival.com

We have located an unusual book titled “The World’s Physician, Christ the Lord or Five-Hundred Testimonies of Divine Healing in Answer to Prayer through the Ages” by H. H. Spiher and published in 1895. Spiher was actually a Church of God (Winebrenner) pastor who pastored two churches established by Maria Woodworth-Etter. This book was written as an apologetics work to support the ministry of healing through Etter. It includes many Etter healing reports, some of which we will include in the testimonies section of the Healing and Revival site. Spiher pointed to historical healing in the church, as well as contemporary healers such as Dr. Charles Cullis. This is a rare book and we were fortunate in having it lent to us.

We have made minor updates to Maria Woodworth-Etter’s biograpahy and added listings for her meetings in the Wells of Revival Section under the following US States – Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, and Ohio.

A. J. Gordon is buried at Forest Hills Cemetery in Boston, Massachusetts. If you are interested in knowing more please look at the reference page under the biography for Gordon. It gives the cemetery address and grave site location.

We’re continuing to add minor updates and work on Mina Ross Brawner. In the US we’ve updated the following under Wells of Revival – MA, MI, OH, OR, LA, and KS. In Australia we’ve updated Victoria. We’re also starting to work on Ethel Willitts a controversial midwest evangelist who was active from the 30s to 50s. If anyone knows anything about her please let us know. Thanks.

We’ve added a link to the reference section for Lucy Drake Osborn.

We’ve made minor corrections on the following people A. B. Simpson, Charles Parham, Mary Mossman, Sarah Lindenberger, Mary Glaser, Elizabeth Baker, Susan Duncan, Dora Dudley, Minnie Tingley Draper, R. Kelso Carter, E. E. Byrum, Maria Woodworth-Etter, and Sarah Mix. We’ve updated the following US States under Wells of Revival – NY, MD, IL, MA, CA, IA, and TX. We also fixed the reference link on Jennie Smith to go to the references instead of returning to the biography page.

We’ve just added two pictures to the reference page for John Alexander Dowie. They include a picture of him at the beginning of his ministry and as a pastor in Sydney, Australia in the 1870s.

Price wrote several books and they’ve been published and republished in several forms. Tim Enloe was kind enough to provide us with a list of the various publications. We’ve added a link to the list under the references for Price.

We’ve located the homes of F. F. Bosworth and Raymond T. Richey and have added them to our Wells of Revival lists in Illinois and Texas.

We’ve made an initial stab at a biography for Dr. Mina Ross Brawner. There are some conflicting dates that we are attempting to resolve and are waiting on articles by Brawner. We will continue to update this biography as we get more information. She is less well known in Pentecostal circles because she was associated with the Open Bible Standard Churches rather than a larger denomination.
