Setting up In Truth ~ One Spirit is my way of meeting my heart's longing. After working for 10 years as Samaritans
Director of Services, I was ordained in 2004 and this site is part of making my dream a reality.
We all minister to each other in our daily lives, but stepping forward explicity to serve is for me another great adventure
on the lifelong journey of unfolding wisdom.
Being an Interfaith minister allows me to honour and journey through the diverse aspects of spirituality, and value each
contribution for the light it sheds on the awareness of the whole.
Spirituality, for me, is a calling to go beyond any sense of separation, to experience the wisdom found within each
of us and meet our wholeness or unity. As the mystics of all generations have told us, this is the Truth found at the heart
of all the major faiths.
"There is no path greater than love.
There is no law higher than love.
And there is no goal beyond love.
God and love are identical."

My experience and qualifications
I started work for the Bank of England in Exchange Control before moving to social services as a day centre manager.
From there I moved into the charity sector. I have 20 years charity experience at senior manager level and most recently as
Samaritans Service Director.
I have been a Trustee of six charity boards and have sat on various government steering committees (for example NHS Direct,
the Suicide Prevention Strategy, Mental Health Promotion). I currently have a private practice/ministry, am a Trustee of a
national children's charity and mentor twelve second year ordinands for the Interfaith Seminary.
