About the Event
Big Sister is Pamela Young’s latest book; a novel that explores themes of spirituality, personal transformation and humanity’s future through the story of Serena, an ordinary woman whose lifelong spiritual experiences lead her on an extraordinary journey.
During the launch, Pamela will discuss the inspiration behind the book, the two decades spent writing it, and the experiences that shaped its creation. She will also share why the Monastery has played such an important part in bringing the book to publication.
Following the launch, guests are invited to the Old Refectory Café to meet Pamela, have their books signed and enjoy the opportunity to continue the conversation over complimentary tea, coffee and cake.
About the Book
​”Serena is an ordinary woman with extra-ordinary gifts. Since she was three years old she has received messages, prophetic dreams and visions from the Light Beings and her spirit guide, Joshua, all about the Work of Light.
​Humanity is on the threshold of a new Golden Age.
​Little does anyone suspect that this new age will dawn on the set of a reality TV show….
​Big Sister is the story of Serena’s journey as she follows the guidance she receives from spirit, the synchronicities and messages, that lead her to a starring role in the Big Sister Reality TV Show and to bringing together a group of housemates for 22 profound days that will change the world forever, in the twinkling of an eye.”
