At the tender age of five, ELAINE BONN asked her Baptist grandmother, 'Would God heal my ears if you prayed for me?' and her grandmother answered, 'Oh, yes!' They prayed, and Elaine experienced healing immediately. That was the beginning for her, and her serious study of the biblical teachings on healing grace began in 1971. Elaine was widowed and left with three teenage children to raise. She remarried, this time to a Lutheran pastor, and this began her formal ministry. She established healing teams at Hope Lutheran Church in Minneapolis and began teaching at retreats and conferences around Minnesota.

Her book The Children's Bread is available.
