Frances Foulks was ordained a Unity minister in 1923 and later that year studied with the famous New Thought teacher Emma Curtis Hopkins. A close friend of Unity cofounder Myrtle Fillmore, Rev. Foulks compiled Mrs. Fillmore's correspondence into a book, eventually titled Myrtle Fillmore's Healing Letters. In 1924 Foulks retired from her staff position at Unity to devote herself full-time to writing, although she continued to be a guest teacher and lecturer at Unity School and at other Unity Centers. She wrote extensively for all of the Unity periodicals and published two books, All Things Made New (now out of print) and Effectual Prayer.
