WHY WE EXIST

Vision, Mission & Purpose

OneSpirit exists to serve something larger than any one training or tradition. Our charitable purpose is the education of mature adults in the core principles of the world’s faiths and spiritual traditions, in the practice of forgiveness, reconciliation and peace-making, and in non-denominational spiritual and pastoral service to the community.

Behind that is a vision: a world in which humanity awakens into an inclusive, global spirituality that holds us all in a field of love and life. Our work is to help open-hearted people find their own inner leadership, and their own capacity for forgiveness, reconciliation and peace making, so that this vision has somewhere real to grow.

Everything we do rests on the same touchstones: inclusivity, compassion, authenticity, spiritual transformation. Not as ideals to admire from a distance, but as a practice we return to again and again.

WHAT WE DO

Courses, Workshops, Webinars, and Retreats

At OneSpirit, our Spiritual Development and Ministry Training sits at the heart of everything we offer. It is a two-year journey designed to support personal growth, spiritual exploration, and preparation for interfaith ministry.

From this core training, our wider offerings naturally extend. Courses, retreats, and workshops create space for continued learning, reflection, and connection, supporting both ministers and the wider community.

We offer live, interactive learning online and in person, making the training accessible to people in different locations and at different stages of life. At its core, this is about creating space for meaningful growth in a way that feels inclusive, supportive, and responsive to each individual’s path.

WHO WE ARE

OneSpirit Interfaith Ministers

At OneSpirit, we train interfaith ministers to serve in diverse spiritual landscapes, supporting individuals and communities with compassion, understanding, and inclusivity.

Our growing network of over 1,000 ministers offers personalised ceremonies, rituals, and spiritual accompaniment for life’s significant moments, including weddings, funerals, and blessings. Alongside this, many bring their work into a wide range of settings, including:

  • Educational workshops on spirituality and personal growth
  • Creative spaces that support expression and transformation
  • Chaplaincy and emotional support in hospitals, hospices, and community settings
  • Healing practices and holistic approaches to wellbeing
  • Talks, writing, and creative work that deepen connection and meaning

Each minister shapes their work in their own way, bringing their skills, presence, and perspective into what they offer. Their inclusive approach and deep listening allow them to support others in ways that feel meaningful, personal, and true to the moment.

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.
