Isaiah Forty is an international Christian ministry. We’re from many denominations, but what unites us is a deep love for guiding people to spiritual and emotional health. You’ll find us throughout North America counselling, teaching, praying, and coaching, all from the conviction that God offers healing and wholeness to people at all stages and conditions of life.
We see in the project of healing and wholeness the task of making disciples (cf. Matthew 28:20). But, on the basis of that same Christian commitment, Isaiah Forty offers services to people of any faith or none at all (cf. Matthew 5:14-16).
We see in our work the movement of the Holy Spirit. But it’s also made possible by many who see in Isaiah Forty the work of God and have decided to give their time and their money so that we might offer our services to those who can only afford very little.
These ongoing relationships of monthly donations and Ministry Partnership mean that these people might continue to find the healing and wholeness they need.
Isaiah Forty is led by our Board of Directors, our President, and our Executive Team.
Director of Spiritual Formation
Tamara Cameron is a spiritual director, a one-on-one coach, and a ceramic artist. She loves seeing people (and art!) take shape, in God's providence. She's been involved in the ministry of Isaiah Forty for 25 years. As Director of Spiritual Formation, Tamara oversees our other spiritual directors and spiritual formation coaches. She loves meals around the dining room table with family and friends, playing with their new puppy, and sailing—when she has the chance. She and Alex have four grown children and four grandchildren. They live outside of Pittsburgh, PA (US).

President and CEO
Amanda McGann is a counselor and teacher with a deep love for Jesus. As Isaiah Forty's President, she serves as the spiritual, cultural, and visionary head of the ministry, leading it to fulfill its mission to help people unearth the fullness of life in Christ Jesus. Amanda’s passion is seeing a healthy, whole church accurately reflect a healthy, whole God. She loves trail running, reading fiction, and barn dances. She lives in Vermont (U.S.) with her husband Gabe and their three children.

Director of Counselling
Eva Bodo, in addition to being a counsellor herself, serves as Isaiah Forty’s Director of Counselling. In this role, she oversees our other counsellors, seeking to foster in others the capacity for healing conversation. Eva was introduced to Isaiah Forty more than twenty years ago, when she sought services at Isaiah Forty in her own healing journey. When she’s not at work, she enjoys reading, playing guitar, and spending time with her bouquet of grandkids. Eva and her husband Bob live on a farm east of Ottawa, ON (CAN).
Isaiah Forty was established in 1991 by Vina Sweetman, a woman of extraordinary prayer and with a gift for teaching people from all walks of life. At the time, it was little more than an extension of her existing ministry of counselling and teaching. But, under her leadership, Isaiah Forty started a counselling center in Montreal, which would become our base of operations, and began a circuit of conferences—many of which we continue to this day—leading people into healing and wholeness.
In 201, Vina went to be with the Lord. But her work as continued. Since then, we’ve continued to grow, both in Canada and throughout the world.
