There's a Spirit in the Kitchen, Amy Kitchener Speaks to America, 
Recipes and Reflections of a 19th-Century Ghost
by Jackie Dashiell & Wanda Sue Parrott, Published in March 2001; Galde Press, Inc.: Lakeville, Minnesota, USA. 
pp 236-237:  ".. . . You must decide your own fate.  We are here to lead, not to push, to teach and not preach.
     "Your future, and that of America, is already written on the plane of celestial nowness.  For some of you, there will be a future America.  For some of you, there will be no future America.
     "Your futures are fertilized cosmic cells.  There are as many futures and pasts as there are readers of these words.  You have the ability to choose which of the fertilized cosmic cells you desire to cause to ripen to fruition.  All already is.  You need only draw that isness unto your plane.
     "Collectively, the physical state of America is, at this time, following cosmic, or God's, immutable law.
     "The collective consciousness, the communal cell structure, which constitutes the United States of America, is recycling.
     "At the time of this dictation (1974), America is in a cycle of conversion.
     "If the nation can convert peaceably, without cells splitting fragmentarily, America will enter a new cycle of conservation after the year 1976.
     "If the national cell structures split, creating breakdown of unification and solidarity on spiritual, mental, and physical levels, conversion will continue. There will be no period of conservation for America because there will no longer be one America.  A new America will manifest in 2001. [This book finally published March, 2001]
     "Cosmically, those who hold understanding of the principle upon which the nation was founded, and who strive to attain the higher color of their spirit side, will always be Americans.  In being true Americans, they will become true citizens of the world, cosmic as well as finite.
     "Those who have not realized the basic freedom for which America stands will lose their freedoms.  This is neither good nor bad.  This is natural, the impersonal working of God's law. . . ."

[Under General Washington's leadership in the American Revolution, other colonies applied for warrants to function under the Masonic Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania.]

Seventh Day Baptist Church.   Members continued to live and worship at the Cloister until 1934.  In 1941, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania acquired the historic site and began a program of restoration and interpretation. ". . .

The Alchemy of the Voice at Ephrata Cloister, by Jan Stryz; Michigan State University
http://www.esoteric.msu.edu/Alchemy.html
". . . . In the wilderness of Pennsylvania, during the mid eighteenth century, Beissel invented his own idiosyncratic version of alchemy from those pieces of Bohemian theosophy he absorbed as a young man in Germany. . . .  Rooted in Platonism, the  'Rosicrucian linguistics' that pervaded mid-seventeenth-century England resembled the 'book mysticism' of post-Paracelsian Germany, and was influenced by Boehme.  Boehme and the various hermetic groups subscribing to this view of language held that man had suffered a second, linguistic fall resulting in a 'Babylonical Confusion,' as the Rosicrucian tract Confessio phrases it.  What prevents man from seeing the divine presence in nature is the inability to read Nature's Book properly.  But true reading entails direct sensual experience, such as occurred when Boehme's vision was opened by the flash of sunlight off a pewter dish.  As his contemporary biographer put it, Boehme then 'went forth into the open fields, and there perceived the wonderful or wonder works of the Creator in the signatures, shapes, figures, and qualities of all created things, very clearly and plainly laid open.'". . .
