The Cherry Tree Pathway

Each year, we adapt our training pathways to meet the unique needs of the new students joining our ministry training. This year, inspired by the cherry tree, symbolising the ongoing cycle of life and renewal, we’re excited to introduce the Cherry Tree Pathway.

This blended programme, with community connection at its heart, is thoughtfully designed to support your growth and development throughout your training journey. Building on the success of our Aspen and Birch Pathways, the Cherry Tree Pathway reflects our commitment to evolving ministry training. As the world continues to change, we continuously adapt our approach to ensure our training remains relevant, impactful, and aligned with the needs of each new group of students.

On this page, you’ll find links to every resource you’ll need as part of the Cherry Tree Pathway. You can also open and/or download our Information Packet by clicking the button just below.

Please remember that we’re here to support you every step of the way!

Words from Our Students

Anna Julia, 2024 Graduate

If I could offer advice or encouragement to someone considering enrolling in the OneSpirit training, it would be: Make enrolling your number one priority.

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.

Elizabeth, 2024 Graduate

I’ve enjoyed most: Being SEEN, studying, showing up and the commitment, the creativity in sessions… A deepening into music and poetry, pilgrimage, and learning from the exquisite modelling of the tutors (through thick and thin).

Jennifer, 2024 Graduate

I was drawn to the positioning of OneSpirit outside of the major faith paths and yet respectful towards, and interested in, all spiritual ways. I so appreciated how OneSpirit displays integrity and inclusion and a commitment to peacefulness and reconciliation. The people I had encountered before applying, and the surrounding materials, suggested this was a programme with real depth and quality and that was very much fulfilled in my experience of the journey.
