About the Book:
The most important question of our time is being asked by a group of young people who call themselves the "Children of Oz." Though they live in different parts of the world and have no way of communicating with one another, they claim to be linked together by an invisible force. But there is something even more fantastic that sets them apart from the rest of the world. They have the power to make things happen — to move objects without touching them and read other people’s minds. This is not fiction but a real phenomenon, and they are among us now. The psychic children are here, and they have an important message for the world.

James Twyman traveled into the mountains of Bulgaria in the summer of 2001 to find the monastery where some of these children have been trained. They are hiding there now, protected by the monks and learning to use their gift with compassion. There is a question they want to ask all of us, a question that may help humanity attain the next level of our spiritual evolution. "Emissary of Love" is the dramatic story the Children of Oz will use to spread their message of peace, a message that could change the world.

About James:
James F. Twyman is an internationally renowned author and musician who travels the world performing "The Peace Concert" in some of the greatest areas of violence and discord. Also known as the "Peace Troubadour," he has been invited by government officials and humanitarian organizations to perform in countries like Iraq, Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Serbia, Kosovo, Israel, East Timor and Mexico, as well as the United Nations in New York. He blends his unique style of music with his international reputation for drawing millions of people together in prayer to influence the process of peace in countries torn apart by hatred and war.

His ministry began in 1994 when he took the peace prayers from the twelve major religions of the world and arranged them to music. His goal was to show how all spiritual paths point to a single expression - Peace. In 1995 he was invited to perform the concert in Croatia and Bosnia during the height of the Balkan war. His best-selling book "Emissary of Light - A Vision of Peace" (Warner Books) recounts his amazing adventures traveling through the mountains of Bosnia learning the secrets of an ancient society of spiritual masters. The book has been translated into a dozen languages and was called ". . . the second coming of the 'Celestine Prophecy' " by Variety Magazine.

Since 1995, James has helped sponsor several major prayer vigils that have been attended by millions around the world. The most famous was called "The Great Experiment," conducted from the United Nations Church Center in New York City on April 23, 1998. More than five million people in at least eighty countries participated in the vigil by attending small prayer circles in hundreds of locations around the world. A month earlier he had been invited by Saddam Hussein to perform "The Peace Concert" in Baghdad, the same week the US and Britain were preparing to bomb Iraq. A week later, James was invited by government officials in Belfast to sing the "Prayer of St. Francis" at Stormont Castle during sensitive peace negotiations there.

James Twyman is also the founder of the "Cloth of Many Colors" peace project which weaves the prayers of hundreds of thousands of people from around the world into a single quilt nearly a mile long. This amazing quilt has been presented at the United Nations in New York, the Pentagon in Washington, and was literally wrapped around the U.S. Capitol on September 20, 2000.

James Twyman’s books include, "Emissary of Light," "Portrait of the Master," and "Emissary of Love" which will be released in the spring of 2002. He has also recorded five CDs including "Ecclesia, vol. 1" with Grammy nominated producer Jim Wilson.

James F. Twyman received his Bachelors degree from Loyola University in 1984, and a Doctorate in ministry from Agape Seminary in 1997. His website has lots of other information of interest.
