Amy Carlson, alias Mother God, was a 45-year-old American cult leader and co-founder of the modern spiritual movement known as Love Has Won. Born on November 30, 1975, she made the extraordinary claim to be God, a being of immense antiquity, estimated to be approximately 19 billion years old, and a reincarnation of Jesus Christ.
Amy's early adult life was characterized by a progressive escalation of unconventional ideas, with a particular fascination with interstellar travel and the notion of starships. Concurrently, she became deeply invested in the principles of New Age philosophy, frequently contributing to online discussions on the forums of Lightworkers.org. As the years passed, Amy's life underwent a significant transformation, marked by a dramatic departure from her previous existence. In 2007, she made the bold decision to leave behind her third husband, her three children, and her managerial position at McDonald's. This seismic shift was accompanied by a deliberate disconnection from most of her family members, as she opted to start anew in the state of Colorado, marking a turning point in her life's trajectory.
The enigmatic entity known as Love Has Won, formerly referred to as the Galactic Federation of Light, made its inaugural appearance on the YouTube platform in the year 2009. What began as a humble online presence gradually evolved into a global phenomenon, with the movement experiencing a significant surge in popularity from 2014 onwards. As the organization continued to grow and expand its reach, its members embarked on a series of nomadic journeys, traversing the states of Colorado, Oregon, California, and Florida before ultimately settling in the picturesque town of Moffat, Colorado.
Amy's health had taken a drastic turn by September 2020, with her being confined to a wheelchair due to paralysis from the waist down, and rumors of a cancer diagnosis circulating among those closest to her.
Amy's lifeless and desiccated remains were unearthed on April 28, 2021, in a makeshift shrine situated within the confines of a mission house nestled in the picturesque town of Crestone, Colorado.
In the aftermath of Amy's passing, the collective entity underwent a significant transformation, with Jason Castillo, who had previously been identified as the "Father God," spearheading the creation of a distinct subgroup known as Joy Rains.
