Rev. Jill Lestina has been a devoted student of A Course in Miracles since 1999. She has studied the Course intensively during the three years of her Ministerial Studies Program at The Church Within of Indianapolis, Indiana. There, she was ordained as a Spiritual Minister in January of 2005.  

Rev. Jill is currently working as an ASL instructor at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana. As part of her spiritual ministry, she works to develop this website, a long term project. She provides ACIM individual study, which facilitate a deep connection to the inner life and spiritual self-empowerment. She teaches the Course and communicates with the Deaf across the country through Videophone, a new technology that has recently emerged. She is excited that this new avenue will bring universal Truth, which empowers the Deaf to the higher awareness of their own Divinity within.

Rev. Jill holds no specific sets of religious doctrines or creed. She embraces and honors each religion its own spiritual path. She knows there is One God and God as a beneficent Divine Presence in every one's heart. She shares the messages of Inner Peace and the Love of God. She affirms that daily spiritual practice of Love and Forgiveness will bring us to the Truth of our own Divinity. Jill, as an interfaith minister, has respect for all different traditions, religions and faiths. It has been said that many paths lead to One God for all religions are like stepping-stones leading back to God.

Over the course of twenty years, she has worked as a homemaker, mother, teacher aide, substitute teacher, classroom teacher of the Deaf, home-schooled teacher, case manager of a Deaf Group Home, an ASL instructor, and a minister of Love!
