Elizabeth Prophet's Family
Prophet was survived by her five children and former husband Ed Francis. Her four adult children: Sean Prophet, Erin Prophet, Moira Prophet, and Tatiana Prophet had all worked for the group at one time or another, but left the Church in the 1990s. Erin Prophet is a project manager at a Boston hospital, and was her mother's co-guardian for many years. She also ran a website that raised funds for her mother's medical care. Sean Prophet is a creative director in Los Angeles, and also runs a prominent atheist website, Black Sun Journal. He has publicly repudiated the teachings of the Ascended Masters and recounted his mother's admission to him of her abuses of power. He has also expressed regret for his role in promoting the organization as minister and vice-president, and his desire to right past wrongs by exposing what he now views as transparent fraud throughout organized religion and the New Age movement. Moira Prophet was the first of Prophet's children to become publicly antagonistic, speaking out against the church on The Oprah Winfrey Show in 1989.
Tatiana Prophet was a reporter for the Victorville Daily Press.
Prophet's grandson Chris Prophet is the former drummer for the post-hardcore group Horse The Band.

Famous quotes containing the words prophet and/or family:
“It is the manner of gods and prophets to begin: “Thou shalt have none other God or Prophet but me.” If I were to start as a God or a prophet I think I should take the line: “Thou shalt not believe in me. Thou shalt not have me for a God. Thou shalt worship any d_____d thing thou likest except me.” This should be my first and great commandment, and my second should be like unto it.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“I swear ... to hold my teacher in this art equal to my own parents; to make him partner in my livelihood; when he is in need of money to share mine with him; to consider his family as my own brothers and to teach them this art, if they want to learn it, without fee or indenture.”
—Hippocrates (c. 460–c. 370 B.C.)
