*Spiritual Development

 

Personal Spirituality  

 

In this country 60% of the population believe in some form of Higher Power, but do not follow a traditional religion. As Interfaith Ministers, we accept and honour the different spiritual paths people choose to follow. We hope to help people honour their own spirituality and integrate it into their lives. We believe that it is important for us to just be available.  

 

Spiritual Development 

 

We see our work as encouraging others to release their fears, and to believe in their true selves - to find their Hero. We use our relationship together to connect with our own soulfulness, to remember who we really are. We provide a safe space for people to explore their own spirituality. 

 

We offer: 
 Ceremonies & Rituals 
 Spiritual Direction & Spiritual Counselling 
 Spiritual Dialogue Groups 

 

Ceremonies & Rituals 

 

We can help you mark occasions or rites of passage with celebrations, rituals, and ceremonies that are created especially for you, at a place or venue of your choosing. If you would like a ceremony that reflects what is important to you, we may be able to help. You may have a traditional faith, or you may have no traditional spiritual beliefs.  

 

Here are some of the ceremonies we offer: 

 Weddings 

 Baby Blessings 

 Special Birthday Celebrations 

 The Affirmation of Anniversary Vows 

 House Blessings 

 Divorce Ceremonies 

 Funerals 

 Memorial Services

Here are some examples to give you a flavour of how we work. 

 

WEDDINGS 

 

Celebrate your wedding with a ceremony created especially for you.  

Although few couples realise that they can create their own ceremony, it is possible to mark this important occasion in a way that is right for you. You can have a service that reflects your personal values and beliefs.  

 

We work with you to develop your own marriage vows and help you to create your own unique wedding service to lay the foundation for your future happiness together. Chrissie originally trained as a couples counsellor, and for many years we have run Wisborough workshops to help people create successful relationships. As Interfaith Ministers we believe in accepting and honouring the different spiritual paths people choose to follow. Whether you have a faith or no traditional religious beliefs your ceremony will be an expression of your beliefs and values.  

 

Our aim is to inspire every couple to use the mystery of their relationship to build a fulfilling life together.

FUNERALS 

 

We will work with you to create a funeral service that is right for you.  

A funeral service helps us with our grief, honours and celebrates the life of the deceased and marks the sacred transition from this life. 

 

 

It needs to be meaningful to everyone and reflect the beliefs and values of the family and the deceased. If you have a traditional faith you will follow its practice, but many people today do not totally accept traditional beliefs. 

 

As Interfaith Ministers we believe in accepting and honouring the different spiritual paths people choose to follow. We can create and lead a service that will be an expression of your personal beliefs and values. You can mark this solemn occasion in a way that is right for you.

SPIRITUAL DIRECTION & COUNSELLING  

This is a one-to-one process to help people explore their personal spiritual path.  

 

We provide a safe space to help you explore the part spirituality plays in your life, and help you to respond and live your life to the full. 

 

 

Our aim is to raise consciousness of who you truly are and to help you honour this with mindfulness, understanding and compassion, finding the hero in everyone.  

 

Whether you have a traditional faith or none, spiritual direction and counselling can help you understand that life is a spiritual process, and help you live your life in a way that reflects this for you. It can develop your spiritual practice and help you understand and develop your relationship with the Divine/God/Goddess/the Great Mystery.

SPIRITUALITY DIALOGUE GROUPS - a monthly discussion group 

 

If you would like to share your spiritual journey with others and find out how others use their spiritual beliefs to "walk their talk" you may be interested in joining a group. The topics for discussion are: 

 

 Sharing our beliefs about the God / the Goddess / the Source / Buddha / Yahweh / Brahma / Allah / the Universal Energy / the Great Mystery 

 How do our spiritual beliefs affect how we live in our community? 

 What does abundance means to us? 

 How can we develop our spiritual beliefs and practice? 

 How do we take responsibility for ourselves and others? 

 Where do we find the support and encouragement we need?
