INSPIRING TESTIMONIALS

Words from Our Students

 

Samantha, 2024 Graduate

I have become more aware of myself in different ways. I am seeing the importance of daily practices and prayer. My self-worth has increased. My understanding of the divine has shifted from being all light to incorporating the dark moments too. I have more in my toolkit for dealing with adversity. There is more compassion for self and others. I realised how my neurodiversity and past wounds drive some of my responses to the world and others.

Paul, 2024 Graduate

It has been great. I have very much enjoyed working with all three tutors and look forward to the onward journey. I have found all three tutors to be very knowledgeable, professional and supportive in a very mindful and caring way. They do so in a way that shows compassion and genuine care for the well-being of students.

Rebecca, 2024 Graduate

Thank you, I didn’t know my life and soul yearned for this process until I found it, and until I began I didn’t know how much my life and soul would be drinking from the bountiful cup that OneSpirit offers.

Jennifer, 2024 Graduate

It was wonderful to find myself among a group of gifted, committed seekers who had all signed up for this shared journey while coming from different backgrounds with different stories, experiences and strengths. The way that different people’s individuality and perspectives emerged more into the community throughout the programme continues to inspire me and we are staying in contact too which fills me with joy.

✨ What makes OneSpirit different? It starts with how we communicate... ✨

WHAT WE OFFER

Spiritual Development & Ministry Training

Our two-year Spiritual Development and Ministry Training has been at the heart of OneSpirit for nearly three decades, a space where learning, reflection, and transformation come together. Rooted in experience and guided with care, it offers a clear and spacious rhythm that nurtures both spiritual depth and real-world presence.

Enrolment for the 2025 training is now closed, and our new class is preparing to begin their journey this October. We’re so grateful to all 41 brave students who felt called to join us this year.

Soon, we’ll unveil our offerings for the Class of 2028, beginning in autumn 2026. With two unique pathways designed to meet you where you are, our upcoming training will continue to honour both personal growth and service to the world.
