The Church of Wisdom Inc. was chartered in 1974 in Miami, Florida, by Jordon Thompson who, before his death, was a practicing lawyer and a trance medium, a rare and unique combination. Mr. Thompson gave the church to Delphi founder Patricia Hayes with this simple instruction: “You’re going to need this for your work in the future." It wasn’t long before the purpose of the church became clear: to create a ministry of healers and teachers who would carry their light, love, and healing energies out into the world, just as the Christ directed his disciples to do over two thousand years ago. Through their teaching and healing ministry, people would be awakened spiritually and would discover the Light of the Divine that shines within themselves and the truth of who and what they really are. The church ordained its first group of ministers in l974. Since that time, our healing ministry has spread to over 20 countries.
The Church of Wisdom Inc. is a 501c (3) non-denominational, non-profit, universal, and spiritual church. We embrace all of God’s truths, and the many ways He has revealed and expressed Himself throughout time. The Church was formed with the purpose of assisting and supporting therapists and healing practitioners in their healing ministry and, with the formation of the International Registry of Spiritual Healers, to provide a certifying body of both spiritual and conventional healing professionals to evaluate, certify, and sanction spiritual, metaphysical, and transpersonal healing and training programs. The Church of Wisdom is the certifying body of Delphi University. The Church also accepts the teaching and training programs from Delphi University, the Patricia Hayes School, the RoHun™ Institute, and the Entura Spiritual Art Institute as its seminary studies for ordination as a minister in the Church of Wisdom.
