Sami Merlyn, DD-- president of ESP LAB, and Spiritual Science Church since May of 2006, Sami took over the organization after the time of Al's passing, as per Al's request. Spring of 1978 Sami met Al and became a member of ESP LAB. Al ordained Sami as a minister in his church on Al's birthday June 19th, 1998. Sami became a LIFE MEMBER June 2, 1999. As an active member Sami worked with Al from Spring of 1978 until his passing April 8th, 2006. Al is still working with ESP LAB and Sami, from the other side. When Al was asked (after his passing) if he would continue helping with spiritual treatments Al responded, "Before they call I will answer!"

Sami started his spiritual quest at age five when his mother told him he had a spiritual father, God, who could answer prayers... Sami was thrilled and promptly asked God and his mother for a puppy. Mother said no but three days later in the culvert outside the church Sami got his puppy. This started a life long love of prayer, and a pursuit of the spiritual.

Sami, raised in a Christian home, started practicing yoga and studying all the religions of the world at 15. Sami wondered why prayer works and what are different methods around the world. At 16 he attended all the local Christian churches and started a devotional club in his high school which still is operational. Sami started laying on hands and praying for folks healing at the same time.

Sami, who considers himself eclectic, likes the words of Sai Baba who said, "All religions are facets of one Truth, all are tributes to Its Glory." Sami continues the work of spiritual quest with treatments for the success of every positive request received, through his work as a minister and president of Spiritual Science and ESP LAB. He encourages everyone to find the Divine Light within and a positive path towards spiritual evolution.
