Seminary Class 2013

My seminary experience has been for me a two-year Journey of Joy, a wonderful deepening of my connection to God/the Devine. No one is more surprised than I to find myself graced by God in this way, prepared to embark on my ministry of service. Thank you to the entire Tree of Life Family for the greatest teaching, the support, and love. I know I walk in God's love and hope to carry forth the message that if we can look through God's eyes, all we will see is love and kindness.  Nelson Stearns

This ministry training has truly been a life-changing experience. I feel more awake and alive, more conscious and responsible with my words and actions, and more able to live with an open heart and a deeper reverence for life and all beings. I plan to take this wonderful experience into the work I do with individuals and groups, as a therapist and teacher, in order to see each person in their wholeness, as a manifestation of Spirit. Thank you, Reverend Stephanie and my wonderful classmates!  Beth Cohen

I came hoping to grow, to "free what waits within me," (Rainer Maria Rilke) and to surrender to the divine. I leave ready to "Open the window in the center of my chest, and let the spirits fly in and out." (Rumi)"  Ilona Kwiecien
​

I feel incredibly blessed and grateful to have been a part of this interfaith seminary program. My faith has deepened within my own traditions, and I now have travel companions to keep me company along my spiritual path. I have delved deep into my spirit and emerged with a clear vision - to help people connect with each other and with their own understanding of the Divine. My next steps will include a continuation of my spiritual songstress path, writing and sharing the songs that God places in my heart; writing a spiritual memoir, showing how I have blossomed "because of" not "in spite of"; and speaking with individuals and groups interested in deepening their own Connection.  Carrie Little
