The huge pipe organ at Riverside Church in Manhattan howls two loud chords as the doors to the chapel open and the 2500 pairs of eyes of those seated in the pews turn to witness an unusual processional. You are invited to join us, too, as our One Spirit Interfaith Seminary class of 2011 steps forward into their ministries at their commencement ceremony and celebration.

The processional is like none other seen. No matching, coordinated caps and gowns here. Each new interfaith minister has chosen their unique expression of the sacred as they proceed down the aisle in the vestments that most clearly represent who they are. It is like a rainbow, the only effort at coordination being the ministerial stoles that hang from their necks. The colorful parade ensues. Each graduate carries a white rose, symbolizing the mystical truth at the core of each faith tradition, and representing each heart pouring itself out in love. The roses form a grand bouquet that stands at the center of the ceremonial space.A moving Interfaith/Interspiritual worship service unfolds, with blessings and prayers shared by clergy from many of the worlds great traditions.

We invite you to join us in honoring and celebrating the graduation of the One Spirit Interfaith Seminary Class of 2011, and to experience the awe and splendor of this special rite of passage

Healing On The Hudson

Join together to begin a spiritual community and to organize a healing event on the banks of the Hudson River overlooking the New York Skyline on the weekend of September 10th and 11th, 2011.
If you would like to participate in creating this experience, CLICK HERE.

One Spirit grew out of the ashes of 9/11 almost ten years ago. On that eventful day the New York Waterways Ferrries of Mr. Arthur Imperatore transported many people across the river to safety. More recently on January 15th, 2009 his ferries rescued the passengers and crew of US Airways Flight 1549 that landed in the Hudson River. Mr. Imperatore is a gentleman who has spent his life building businesses that create a sense of community for all its constituents. He has long hoped to provide the opportunity for the many thousands of residents and commuters who pass through his flagship terminal at Port Imperial (across the Hudson from the Empire State Building), with an opportunity for deeper connection based on the varied expressions of wisdom that have come down to us throughout the ages.

At One Spirit we have worked with various approaches to creating an ongoing spiritual community built on the InterSpiritual, Global Evolutionary foundation that supports all of our work. The diverse talent in the One Spirit community can make this possibility a reality. Mr. Imperatore is offering his terminal at Port Imperial, an extraordinary venue, to join together to create a deeply meaningful gathering that can serve a significant community in the New York environment. This creative expression can then can serve as a model for other communities across the country. If you are interested in taking your calling to a new place, and being at the heart of a new creation, please CLICK HERE to fill out the form and join us for a community meeting in the near future.
