One Spirit Interfaith Foundation
One Spirit Interfaith Foundation trains people to be Interfaith Ministers and offers cemonies, including wedding ceremonies and spiritual counselling to people of all faiths or none.
Interfaith Ministers Association
The Interfaith Ministers Association (IMA) provides support to the spiritual community of ministers and counsellors who offer ceremonies for weddings, civil partnerships, namings, blessings, funerals and memorials and more private sessions for personal counselling, direction or healing.
"Ceremony usually marks an important point in someone’s life, perhaps a transition into a new phase of life (a rite of passage), a celebration of a commitment to a new or an old relationship (as in a relationship blessing or wedding), or to help a person to process the change that they are passing through, often involving to remember, commit or let go. "
"I vow to serve the spiritual needs of anyone where it's
clear that I am meant to."
Feedback for ceremonies:
“I am sitting here in tears. I love my ceremony. There is nothing I would change.”
“Thank you for your wonderful work. Very inspiring and clear – lovely.”
“These are beautiful vows. The first one hit just the right note for me.”
“I'm going to read the ceremony several times…there is so much in it that resonates with me.”
Where I may not best be able to help, one of my friends and fellow ministers may be able to. I know all of the following ministers very well and am very happy to recommend them. If you would like to make contact with any of them, please drop me an email or give me a call and I'll put you in touch.
