Agnes Sanford
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Agnes Mary White Sanford (1897-1982) is considered to be one of the principal founders of the Inner Healing Movement. She was the daughter of a Presbyterian missionary in China and the wife of an Episcopal priest. Her first book, 'The Healing Light', is often considered a classic in its field. Agnes was the mother of Jack Sanford (died 2005), the renowned Jungian analyst and author.
Agnes Sanford was a key figure in the Charismatic Movement in the United States during the 1960s through to about 1980, mainly through her writing. Her books include an autobiography titled 'Sealed Orders'. Many of her books were published by Logos Books. Her books can still be found online from various sources. There are also some websites with information on Agnes Sanford.
[edit] Education
Agnes Sanford attended Peace College, which was at that time a two-year college. Subsequently she applied to Agnes Scott, but did not meet all of their requirements and was admitted as a non-degree (or "special" student) in the class of 1919. She studied there for two years.
