After several conversations, Tracy was invited to a few of his company’s rehearsals and shortly after that Tracy became a member of his performance company.
September 2008 Rev. Dr. Ray introduced Tracy to Unity church. She realized that was what she had been seeking and missing in her life. It was then her interest was piqued to learn about Metaphysics and New Thought.
Tracy began visiting classes Rev. Dr. Ray was teaching at Southeast University and it was the night he showed his class the movie “Conversations With God” she learned her calling. Tracy told Rev. Dr. Ray “That’s what I want to do, be your Administrative Assistant.” After realizing Tracy was serious, Rev. Dr. Ray thought about it, and accepted Tracy’s offer. Tracy has been Rev.
