Ministry
Where Ancient Wisdom Meets Enduring Fortune
GOED FORTUIN SELF SUPPORTED MINISTRY
A private, ecclesiastical, unincorporated ministry devoted to empowering individuals and families through the ancient arts of storytelling, communication healing, and dignified life organization.
- WHO WE ARE
Rooted in Ancient Wisdom,
Rising Toward Purpose
Goed Fortuin Self Supported Ministry is called forth in the tradition of our ancestors — emerging as a vessel of transformation for individuals and families who seek to reclaim their voice, preserve their legacy, and walk boldl into their divine identity.
True healing begins when we restore our relationship with our own words. Rooted in the sacred knowing that the spoken word is the first act of creation, we hold space for humanity to remember who they are — not as they have been told, but as they have always been ordained to be.
Led by Executive Director Beverly Lopes alongside Managing Directors Karen Lopes and Jaguar SunBai, our ministry is guided by the Law of One, the Spiritual Constitution of our Ministry, and the eternal Covenant with the Creator.
“Good fortune is not stumbled upon — it is cultivated through the sacred act of knowing who you are, honoring where you come from, and walking with purpose toward all that you are called to be.”
— Beverly Lopes, Executive Director

- OUR MISSION & GOALS
Communities Where Healing Is the Foundation
Our mission is to empower individuals and families to discover, honor, and confidently express their life purpose — through guided storytelling, communication healing, and dignified life organization.
COMMUNICATION HEALS INSTEAD OF HARMS
We equip individuals and families with ancestral communication tools, storytelling frameworks, and healing practices — transforming how we speak, listen, and relate across generations, cultures, and conditions.
CULTURE IS DOCUMENTED, NOT FORGOTTEN
Through guided life documentation, oral history projects, and dignified life organization resources, we preserve family histories and cultural legacies — because a people who preserve their story preserve their power.
YOUTH & ELDERS BECOME GUARDIANS OF HISTORY
Following in the footsteps of griot traditions and council fires, we create intentional spaces that bring youth and elders together as co-keepers of heritage, memory, and intergenerational wisdom.
FINANCIAL DIGNITY IS A RIGHT, NOT A PRIVILEGE
Rooted in the principle that abundance flows from alignment with purpose, we integrate financial literacy, dignified life planning, and resource access so every family builds lasting generational strength.
