Sister Dorothy not only helped heal my body,she helped heal my mind and heart. After a visit with her, you always left feeling happy, positive and content. She taught me to love myself,I am so grateful too her! I do not think she is resting in peace I am sure, she is already working in heaven along side with God and maybe, making a few suggestions on how to improve the people on earth
