Ms. Jamilah Maat Nation

Monday, April 13, 2009 Healing teacher, counselor and community activist, Ms. Jamilah Maat Nation, transitioned on Saturday, April 11, 2009. Jamilah courageously and graciously combated uterine cancer during the past year. She was 45 years young. A candlelight vigil and celebration for Jamilah's life are being coordinated and dates will be announced subsequently. Sister Jamilah generously impacted many people's lives through Healing Happens Consulting, and specifically through her passion for women's health and womb wellness. She fiercely taught each of us to "do what you love and love what you do, as peace, love, harmony and joy are our natural birthrights."Food and financial contributions are requested for Jamilah's family. For a list of the family's food requests, or to make any type of love offering, please contact Shelia Jones at 770-933-7662 (shelia.jones@cmich.edu) or Kimberly Stewart at 404-403-3085 (absolutelydivine1@hotmail.com).Please share this message with others, as Jamilah's powerful influence spread far and wide. We ask that you lift up the Jones and Green families in your prayers. Lastly, in honor of our sister Jamilah Nation, team Healing A Nation was formed to participate in this year's Relay for Life (of South DeKalb, GA) on May 01, 2009. If you would like to participate by joining the team and/or donating to the American Cancer Society, please visit: http://main.acsevents.org/goto/teamhealinganationIn advance, give thanks for your love and support."I want to empower people to utilize their gifts from the Creator and to find their divine purpose. When we recognize that the Universe is open and abundant to us, and if we choose to let go of old hurts, we thrive. It is unacceptable to merely exist; we must live each day as if it's our last day on earth." - Ms. Jamilah Maat Nation
