Aimee Semple McPherson: A Life In Photos

Aimee Semple McPherson (October 9, 1890 -- September 27, 1944), also known as "Sister Aimee" or "Sister," was a Canadian-born evangelist and media sensation in the 1920s and 1930s; she was also the founder of the Foursquare Church. [1] She was a pioneer in the use of modern media, especially radio, to create a form of religion that drew heavily on the appeal of popular entertainment.

My Grandmother Vivian DeWatney- Roland- Gray @ that time, was with Aimee for quite a few years working with her down at Angeles Temple in Los Angeles. She told us many stories about the Azusa St Revival..... Yes, my Grandmother was and evangelist as well. Because of that great heritage , all of us in our family have been in Ministry of some sort and I am a pastor myself. Thank God for his hand on my grandmother and that she said yes to the Lord's call......We have a rich heritage...

An example that God can use even a woman in the ministry. She was a blessing in our history

It is important to examine the fruit that comes from a person's life. Donations were received ti fund the building and furnishing of the Angeles Temple, as well as Aimee's home. It is tradition to provide housing and such for ministers. Aimee did not allow society o dictate her destiny. She is an inspiration to so many to be who they are to be in Christ.

Aimee McPherson - великий голос Америки. Эмми, вернись в стократной силе в это последнее время! Жатва поспела!

This woman led an extraordinary life and seemed close to supernatural. I used to hear mostly bad things about her, but somehow none of that seems to have been ever proven. The worst seems to be that she starting imitating the fashions of glamourous Hollywood stars. She should have avoided that stuff, as it only gave more fuel for attackers determined to slander and libel her either to try to destroy her church as competition for their own or to sell newspapers and books.

Doesn't the woman in black at 03:41 look a little like Joyce Meyer?

[@kharley1967]

Read Daniel Epstein's book about her...it answers a lot of questions... actually...there were many other churches in LA at that time that had more money and significant buildings. My grandmother's sister hated Aimee... but Aimee ministered and encouraged millions and then Jesus changed the lives of many, many people who are now in the history books because they served others for their whole lives and gave people encouragement that Jesus loves them!

False teacher. How many female apostles were there? God didn't call women to be pastors and certainly not to start denominations that taught false doctrine.

@•F_bash Obviously not anti Christian as an anti Christian wouldn't care whether a female pastor is biblical or not.
