==Early years==
{{Self-published|section|date=January 2021}}

Elizabeth Clare Prophet was born Elizabeth Clare Wulf at Monmouth Memorial Hospital in [[Long Branch, New Jersey]] on April 8, 1939, the only child of a German immigrant, Hans Wulf, and his Swiss wife, Fridy.<ref name="Harnett-Failed-June-2024-55">{{cite magazine | title=The Prophet Who Failed |first=Emily |last=Harnett |magazine=Harper's|date=June 2024 |page=55 |url=https://harpers.org/archive/2024/06/the-prophet-who-wasnt-after-the-apocalypse-that-failed-emily-harnett/ |access-date=30 July 2024 }}</ref>  She grew up with her family in [[Red Bank, New Jersey|Red Bank]], New Jersey during the [[Second World War]].{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=8}}  She describes her earliest childhood as idyllic, yet also chaotic and unpredictable.<ref name="Harnett-Failed-June-2024-55"/> In 1942, when she was two years old, her  [[Internment of Germans in the United States|father was detained on  suspicion of being a German spy]].<ref name="Harnett-Failed-June-2024-55"/>  In her autobiography she writes that upon his release he inspired her to help others who may also suffer because of their nationality, race, or religion,{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=33}} and that the [[Holocaust]] convinced her of the reality of absolute [[evil]] in the world. This played a main role in her deciding to major in [[political science]] in her studies.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=37}}

She also writes of her father's [[addiction to alcohol]], his [[verbal abuse]] of her mother and violent temper which he directed towards them and the destruction of his beloved fish tanks.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=67}}  Prophet came to believe that when the [[blood alcohol content]] creates a chemical imbalance in the body, [[Demonic possession|possessing demons]] take over the mind and the emotions.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=74}}

In her early life, she periodically [[Syncope (medicine)|blacked out]]. This happened in the third grade, when she was about to say her lines in a Christmas play, and recurred throughout her life. This was first diagnosed as petit mal epilepsy, known more commonly today as [[absence seizures]], although she believed it was a way of escaping her father’s alcoholic rages.<ref name="Harnett-Failed-June-2024-55"/> She did not find medication helpful, and discontinued using it.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=90}} Her mother later confessed that in 1937 she took some pills in an unsuccessful attempt to abort her pregnancy with Elizabeth. Prophet thought her mother was implying the medication may have contributed to her childhood blackouts. Prophet herself did some research, and believed the use of [[quinine]] sulphate could have damaged the developing nervous system and the brain.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=101}}

Elizabeth Wulf claimed mystical experiences while growing up. She claimed that when she was about four, she had a vision of herself playing on the sands of the [[Nile]] river in Egypt.  (Her mother told her that it was a [[past life regression|past life]].){{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=48}}  She claimed that as a child she felt God's light around her naturally, and heard a sound in her inner ear like that of an ocean wave or the roar of [[Niagara Falls]].{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=106}} While water-skiing, she said she felt she was suspended in a place where other spiritual beings existed, who were joyous in the light, radiating love. This motivated her to find out more about who these "saints robed in white" (Rev. 7:9-17) were, for she had always believed in the "universality of all true religion".{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=131}}

==Influences==
Wulf grew up in a home that was mainly non-religious except for major holidays. (The New York Times describes her as being a [[Christian Scientist]] as a child.)<ref name="Grimes-NYT-obit">{{cite news |last1=Grimes |first1=William |title=Elizabeth Prophet, 70, Church Founder, Is Dead |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/17/us/17prophet.html |access-date=31 July 2024 |work=New York Times |date=16 October 2009}}</ref> Her father was [[Lutheran]], her mother nominally [[Catholic]]. Yet it was her mother's interests in [[Theosophy (Blavatskian)|Theosophy]], the [[I AM Activity]], and [[Christian Science]] that had the most influence on her.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=45}} In Theosophy and the I AM Activity she heard about the [[Ascended Masters]], [[Karma]], and [[Reincarnation]]; in [[Christian Science]] she was told that matter was not the only reality and that the spirit part of us made in the image of God was our true nature. Prophet stayed with Christian Science until she met [[Mark Prophet]] at the age of 22.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=52}}

==Education==
Wulf spent her junior year studying French in Switzerland in 1956, and a year later graduated from [[Red Bank Regional High School]] ranked second in her class. She attended [[Antioch College]] in Ohio from September 1957 to March 1959 majoring in political science and economics. She transferred to [[Boston University]] in September 1959, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science in August 1961.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=238}}

==Career==
In the summer of 1958, Wulf took a co-op job as a camp counselor in a French immersion school in Vermont. She was in charge of a number of high school girls between 15 and 16 years old and her role was to discipline them. She described the experience as frustrating and said she ended up praying to God she might never be put in a position of authority over others.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=131}}
[[Image:Ecp-croagh-patrick-1980.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Elizabeth Clare Prophet in front of the chapel at the summit of [[Croagh Patrick]], Ireland, 1980]]
In late 1958 she served an internship at the [[United Nations]] as secretary for [[Leo Rosenthal]], a UN photographer. She claimed that her experience at the UN showed her that many of the ambassadors were not there to solve the world's problems and rather were engaged in power politics and manipulation of the world's economies. When she left after three months, she was depressed, and held the opinion that, to solve the world's problems people would need to change their concept of themselves and God.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=131}}

After moving to Boston in 1959, she worked as a secretary for the Christian Science church and ''[[The Christian Science Monitor]]''. According to Prophet that is where she learned much about the publishing operations, organization, and administration of a church on a worldwide scale. This would help her later in running her own church.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=18}}

Wulf claimed she had realized she was intended to be a messenger while meditating with Mark L. Prophet at a public meeting in Boston on April 22, 1961. He had come to teach what he called "the Ascended Masters". She later claimed to have received a vision, while meditating with him, that her role in life was to pass on a higher teaching to further humanity's spiritual evolution.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=188}} She confided to Mark the next day she was also to be a messenger like him. He accepted her as a student at his mystical school, The Summit Lighthouse. She said she received another vision in June of that year by way of a visitation by the Ascended Master, El Morya, who told her to go to Washington, D.C. to be trained as messenger.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=188}}

After she attended her first conference in Washington in July, Mark Prophet returned to Boston in August to help her move to Washington to begin her training under him.{{sfn|Prophet|2009|p=211}} After her first marriage ended in divorce,<ref name="NYT">{{Cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/17/us/17prophet.html |title=Elizabeth Prophet, 70, Church Founder, Is Dead  |newspaper=The New York Times |date=October 17, 2009 |access-date=March 7, 2018|last1=Grimes |first1=William }}</ref> they married in 1963 and, upon his death on February 26, 1973, Prophet assumed leadership of the organization.{{sfn|Lewis|2009|p=171}} In 1981 the Church Universal and Triumphant purchased the {{convert|12000|acre|km2|adj=on}} Forbes Ranch just outside [[Yellowstone Park]], near [[Gardiner, Montana]].<ref name="ecp2">{{cite web|title=125 Montana Newsmakers: Elizabeth Clare Prophet|url=http://www.greatfallstribune.com/multimedia/125newsmakers3/prophet.html|work=Great Falls Tribune|author=Tribune Staff|access-date=August 26, 2011}}</ref> In 1986, Prophet relocated her headquarters to that property.<ref name="legacy" /><ref name="leader" />

===Teachings===
The dogma of The Summit Lighthouse included a doctrine called the Path of Personal Christhood, or the way of the soul's one-on-one relationship with God through Christ consciousness. Prophet believed she shared the gift of the word, both written and spoken. She claimed to be in constant communion with God.

''The Science of the Spoken Word'', as Elizabeth and Mark taught it, was thought to be a gift of sound combined with meditation, prayer and visualization.{{sfn|Prophet|1972|p=1}} They believed that a Divine Gift (The Ascension) of union with God was possible.{{sfn|Prophet|1991|p=9}}

====Preparation for nuclear holocaust====
In 1987, Prophet predicted a first strike by the Soviet Union if America did not implement a missile defense program. She began to admonish her followers to move to Montana and build nuclear fallout shelters for the impending nuclear holocaust.<ref>SU Press dictations</ref><ref name="legacy"/>  Adherents started construction of what was called the largest bomb shelter in the U.S.<ref name=Harnett-Failed-June-2024/> at the church compound in [[Corwin Springs, Montana]]<ref name="egan">{{cite news|last1=Egan|first1=Timothy|title=Guru's Bomb Shelter Hits Legal Snag|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1990/04/24/us/guru-s-bomb-shelter-hits-legal-snag.html|access-date=May 31, 2017|work=The New York Times|date=April 24, 1990}}</ref> on land purchased from magazine publisher [[Malcolm Forbes]].<ref name="LA"/> Church members not on the staff built private shelters nearby. 

Starting on 15 March 1990, over three days, "hundreds" of followers waited for a nuclear attack in various bomb shelters,<ref name=Harnett-Failed-June-2024>{{cite magazine | title=The Prophet Who Failed |first=Emily |last=Harnett |magazine=Harper's|date=June 2024 |page=50 |url=https://harpers.org/archive/2024/06/the-prophet-who-wasnt-after-the-apocalypse-that-failed-emily-harnett/ |access-date=30 July 2024 }}</ref> communicating with each other by radio. Insiders, however, spread the word that the event might be the real thing. No one knew for sure, and many children believed this could be the end of life as they knew it.<ref name="egan"/> When no nuclear bombs exploded the event was compared to another  unsuccessful prediction of the end of the world, [[The Great Disappointment]] of 1844.<ref name=Harnett-Failed-June-2024/> 

====Post-disappointment====
Many left the church following this disappointment, but many stayed.<ref name=Harnett-Failed-June-2024-52-58>{{cite magazine | title=The Prophet Who Failed |first=Emily |last=Harnett |magazine=Harper's|date=June 2024 |page=52, 58 |url=https://harpers.org/archive/2024/06/the-prophet-who-wasnt-after-the-apocalypse-that-failed-emily-harnett/ |access-date=30 July 2024 }}</ref> The Prophet's focus took a gradual turn away from nuclear prepping and toward community outreach. Around this same time, the nearly-completed construction was halted by court order when large amounts of stored diesel fuel leaked and contaminated the area.<ref name="egan"/>

As of 2024 the church is headquartered in Montana and has "teaching centers" around the world.<ref name=Harnett-Failed-June-2024-51>{{cite magazine |title=The Prophet Who Failed |first=Emily |last=Harnett |magazine=Harper's|date=June 2024 |page=51 |url=https://harpers.org/archive/2024/06/the-prophet-who-wasnt-after-the-apocalypse-that-failed-emily-harnett/ |access-date=30 July 2024 }}</ref>

Some are on friendly terms with the group as it is today; others not necessarily. Prophet encouraged all of her children to fill various roles in the organization's leadership and spiritual work. At one time, Elizabeth appointed Erin Prophet as her successor but Erin declined this role. Sean Prophet is an avowed [[Atheism|atheist]], he has renounced all [[religion]]s, including his mother's church.

==Legacy==

For many years, around 15,000 hours of recordings of Prophet's sermons have been kept in a concrete bunker in Montana for safe keeping.<ref name=Harnett-Failed-June-2024-50>{{cite magazine | title=The Prophet Who Failed |first=Emily |last=Harnett |magazine=Harper's|date=June 2024 |page=50 |url=https://harpers.org/archive/2024/06/the-prophet-who-wasnt-after-the-apocalypse-that-failed-emily-harnett/ |access-date=30 July 2024 }}</ref> Video footage played on monitors of her "channeling, chanting, lecturing, singing, and prophesying" are part of the church's religious service and are said to "composed the bulk of her ministry".<ref name=Harnett-Failed-June-2024-50/>

===Ascended Lady Master Clare===
Those who adhere to the Ascended Master Teachings believe that Elizabeth Clare Prophet made her ascension after her death. (Adherents of Prophet do not refer to her death but to her "ascension".)<ref name=Harnett-Failed-June-2024-59>{{cite magazine | title=The Prophet Who Failed |first=Emily |last=Harnett |magazine=Harper's|date=June 2024 |page=59 |url=https://harpers.org/archive/2024/06/the-prophet-who-wasnt-after-the-apocalypse-that-failed-emily-harnett/ |access-date=30 July 2024 }}</ref> She is known by various names which have been given to her by different organizations, including Ascended Lady Master Clare and Ascended Lady Master Clare de Lis.

It is asserted that Lady Master Clare's previous incarnations were:<ref>{{cite web | url=https://wrldrels.org/2018/04/08/church-universal-triumphant-summit-lighthouse/ | title=Church Universal & Triumphant / Summit Lighthouse – WRSP }}</ref>

===Michael Flynn===
In September 2021, retired General [[Michael Flynn]] addressed the "Opening the Heavens 2021" conference, an evangelical Christian event organized by Pastors Hank and Brenda Kunneman of Lord of Hosts Church and One Voice Ministries. The conference was held at the Mid-America Center in Council Bluffs, Iowa, near Omaha, Nebraska. During his speech, Flynn led the audience in a supposed Christian Nationalist prayer that directly plagiarised a sermon given by Clare Prophet in the early 1980's.{{Citation needed|date=December 2024}} {{Dubious discuss|date=December 2024}}
