In 1943, theology graduate student Harmon Bro and his wife June came to Virginia Beach, deeply skeptical of the psychic abilities of Edgar Cayce.

What they came away with was a profound appreciation of the “Miracle Man from Virginia Beach” and lifetime support for what came to be known as “the Work.”

This Monday night live at 7 p.m., in person and online on Conscious Universe with A.R.E. CEO Christopher Naughton, Pam Bro shares her parents’ first-hand accounts of Edgar Cayce. She is joined by long-time A.R.E. and Cayce experts Judith Stevens; John Van Auken; and Herb Puryear, PhD.

The event is free. Register today. Be part of this unique fireside chat of what it was like to personally interact with Edgar Cayce.
