Barbara Corinne Davies
May 31, 1931 to October 28, 2020
Barbara was a truly humble person and a beautiful instrument for God. She was raised by a Cree Mother who had endured 14 years of Indian Residential schooling and acted out her woundedness by abusing Barb from infancy. Barb credited spirit for helping her survive her childhood.
It wasn’t until Barbara was guided to meet Alec Gaunt in 1969 that she found the Truth of Divine Love and validation of her psychic giftedness. Her relationship with God became central to her life.
She devoted herself in service to the Highest and sought God’s guidance every day. In 1971 she started a charity that became the expression of her love for God and God’s Love for the homeless, physically handicapped, mentally ill, poor, abused, drug addicted, the cast-offs of society, struggling to survive. She felt that “there but for the Grace of God go I”. She brought to each person her non-judgmental, unconditional love, safety, emotional, material, and spiritual support. Her clients felt themselves seen, valued and no longer alone in their struggles.
Barbara served on the Boards of Vancouver’s Community Legal Assistance Society (a non-profit law firm providing free legal assistance for low-income people), the Federated Anti-Poverty Groups of BC and for 5 years, as a delegate from BC to the Canadian Council of Welfare. In these organizations she was a voice for the poor and participated in changing legislation and drafting welfare guidelines for all of Canada.
To her large circle of family and friends, Barb was a nurturer, a trusted mentor and spiritual model. Her soul, awakened in Love, guided her life. She was a great storyteller, hostess, terrific cook and baker, and had a delightful sense of humour. She loved animals as well as people, rescuing many dogs and cats over the years who adored their human Mother. After stressful days at work, she relaxed by caring for the fish, turtles and many plants in the 14 aquariums in her home. They too, flourished under her healing touch!
You are welcome to share your memories of, experiences with, and tributes to Barbara!
Thank you,
with love,
