Biography of Annie Rix Militz:

Annie Rix Militz (1856 - 1924), was an American spiritual writer and leader, known for her role as one of the first organizers of the new thought movement. She is mainly remembered as the founder of ""Home of Truth"", an independent denomination of the new thought. Through his writings and teachings, Annie shared his knowledge and experiences on meditation and concentration techniques, helping people improve their approach and reach their goals.

Annie Rix Militz was born in California in March 1856 being the firstborn of Hale and Alice P. Rix. She became a teacher in San Francisco in her thirties and attended a class taught by Emma Curtis Hopkins, known as the ""Teacher of Masters"" of the new thought. During the meeting, Annie experienced a healing of a migraine and deafness in a ear.

In 1887, together with Harriet and Sadie Gorie, he founded the home of Christian science, which was later renamed the home of truth. In 1890, he moved to Chicago to study at the theological Seminary of the Christian Science of Emma Curtis Hopkins and was ordered along with Charles and Myrtle Fillmore the following year.
In the Colombian World Exhibition of 1893 in Chicago, Illinois, he met Hindu Swami Vivekananda, an event that influenced her to get away from her Christian vision of the new thought and become an interreligious teaching. His writings emphasize healing methods and techniques for the development of mental powers. In 1911, he broke with Unity Church to promote his own interreligious teachings of the new thought.
Militz and his sister are better known today as the founders, in 1905, of The Home of Truth, an independent denomination of the new thought that is a member of INTA, located in Alameda, California.
