I have had a spiritual core in my life, even while I was a teacher and coach. Recently, I felt called to develop that core into a professional presence as an Interfaith minister and spiritual counselor. I was ordained as an Interfaith minister in June 2014 and finished my program in Spiritual Counseling in June 2016. Truly, I have discovered that there are many names for God or the Universe, and m
any ways Spirit works in the world. Key questions we can ask each other are “What is God (or the Universe) teaching you today? Or, “What touches your heart and helps you connect to Spirit?”
There is so much collective wisdom in all the traditions and we are learning many ways that concepts of God share much at the heart level. When we learn to love and appreciate one another and our paths to higher consciousness, I suspect our dogmatic differences will fade in significance. My ministry is interfaith—exploring and experiencing the many worshipful ways of Spirit and learning the ways wisdom and truths about living are mirrored in each faith. While I have deep Christian faith and roots, I have been touched by transformational rituals from many faiths. Spiritual Counseling helps people find healing and their connection to God in the working out of life issues. Lewis said we can get “bent” by life’s hurts and struggles: spiritual counseling and healing prayer can bring God’s love and energy into places which have become closed or wounded. Faith isn’t about rules, except at a very basic level: it’s about connection and love between all humans, and The Source of all love. Come and join me in the conversation! I am available now for creative weddings, baby blessings, funerals and rituals that celebrate any of life’s group events. Spiritual Counseling is available on an individual or group basis. Workshops on Forgiveness, Grief, or other topics are a possibility. Even as you are reading this description of me and my ministry, I pray you will be encouraged to keep faith alive and that God loves you deeper than deep.
